Pour the mix (about 1/3rd at a time) into the blender and pulse six or possibly seven times for each batch. Place blended soup in Crockpot and add in half and half and nutmeg. Heat on low for another half hour and then let sit till dinner. Taste for seasoning; garnish and serve hot, not warm. This is also good as a cool soup. This is a great soup. It came to me from my friend, Pinky Thomas, on Maui. While my daughter, Jonelle, attended school at Seabury Hall, Pinky often played surrogate mom to her. This was one of Jonelle's favorites. Pinky always used beef broth; I use chicken. I add in another potato to Pinky's one potato and I also add in a clove of garlic. Finally I add in real crumbled bacon Or possibly real bacon bits for a garnish, along with a couple of tiny cooked broccoli flowerets. Enjoy! Me ke aloha, Mary
