    Tips To Serve Sides

    Serving Breads

    • Opt for warm bread instead of a cold baguette. For extra flavor, brush it with melted butter and sprinkle with rosemary, garlic or other italian herbs before serving.
    • Serving potato soup in a bread bowl (especially in a sourdough bread) can be both fun and delicious and is a unique idea when considering what to serve with potato soup.

    Unique Topping Options

    • Drizzle Herb-Infused Oil: For a minimalist but flavor-packed addition, drizzle herb-infused olive oil over your potato soup and serve it with crusty bread for dipping, an excellent choice when deciding what to serve with potato soup.
    • Substitute Kale Chips for Crackers: Crush and sprinkle some kale chips for a light, crunchy flavor to your soup. It brings out a touch of saltiness to complement this smooth soup.
    • Use Nuts and Seeds: Sprinkle some pine nuts for a rich buttery flavor (and a gourmet touch!) to your soup. You can also never go wrong with sunflower seeds - they add the perfect crunch to any soup. Check out our easy roasted sunflower seed recipe here.
