Servings: persons

2 -3 lbs fresh spinach
4 tablespoons butter (I used a combination of olive oil and butter)
1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
1 -2 garlic clove, peeled and finely minced (my addition)
6 cups chicken broth
2 cups yukon gold potatoes (peeled or unpeeled)
1 cup half-and-half (I used mostly half and half and some heavy cream)
1 cup shredded jarlsberg cheese
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon white pepper
shredded jarlsberg cheese
freshly ground nutmeg (my addition)

1
Trim spinach, then stack the leaves together and slice into slender strips.
2
I used a food processor and on the PULSE setting shredded the spinach.
3
In a large skillet, melt the butter and saute the onions and garlic until soft and golden.
4
Add the spinach and continue to saute until the leaves have wilted, about 1 minute; set aside.
5
In a large pot, heat the broth to boiling, along with the potatoes, reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the potatoes are very soft, about 20 minutes.
6
Scrape the spinach mixture into the pot to combine.
7
Using a hand-held blender or your food processor, blend the mixture to cream the potatoes and spinach, but dont over-process; you want bits of spinach and potato to remain as a part of the soups texture.
8
Add the half and half and gently reheat the soup, then drop the shredded cheese into the pot, a little at a time, stirring after each addition until the cheese melts.
9
Add salt and pepper to taste.
10
Garnish each serving with some shredded jarlsberg cheese and a light sprinkle of freshly grated nutmeg.
