sweet potato soup

This recipe is from Cook's Illustrated. I was unable to find the actual recipe online to make a link, so here is the emailed recipe my momma sent me. Thank you mom for sending me this, and thank you Cook's Illustrated for the scrumptious recipe!

Sweet Potato Soup:

Cook 6 slices of bacon in a dutch oven until crisp. drain bacon on

paper towel and set aside. Discard all bacon fat but 2T from pot. Add

1 onion chopped fine, 1t packed brown sugar, and 1t salt and cook

stirring occasionally until onion is softened. Stir in 3 minced garlic

cloves and cook until fragrant. Add 2lbs sweet potatoes peeled

quartered lengthwise and sliced thin, 4c low sodium chicken broth, and

1c water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes

are tender. Process in blender. Salt and pepper to taste. Top with

chives and crumbled bacon, but it tastes great plain too! Yum!!! I

think you need to make it.
