Preparation

Step 1

In a medium-sized soup kettle, saute onion in butter. Add water, chicken base, bay leaf, potatoes, and knoephla. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Add milk or half and half and seasonings, and simmer 5 to 10 minutes. Remove bay leaf.

Makes 12 cups.

For those who prefer to make their own knoephla rather that
buy the frozen ones, this is how I do it.

2 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 cup milk

Mix above ingredients and cut into boiling soup.
