  • Add potatoes, broth, and water.
  • Simmer 25 min, until soft.
  • Add arugula and cook about 10 min longer, or until stems are soft.
  • Add salt, pepper and liquor to taste.
  • Puree to rough or smooth texture, as you like.
  • Adjust seasoning.
  • Serve hot or chilled, topped with yogurt and garnished with arugula slivers.
  • As watercress changes potato soup into something that doesn’t taste quite like any of the individual ingredients, so arugula transforms this traditional soup base.
  • Flexible, the soup can be pureed to a chunky or a smooth texture, and served hot, as a main dish, or chilled, as a first course.
