2 1/2 pounds baby red potatoes, quartered
1/2 cup uncooked bacon, finely diced

2 quarts milk

In large pot, boil potatoes in water 10 minutes.

In large heavy pot, saute bacon, onion and celery over medium-high heat until celery is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove mixture from pot, drain bacon grease and return mixture to pot.
Add milk, water, base, salt and pepper.

Add flour and mix well.
Cook over medium-low heat until mixture bubbles, stirring 2 to 3 minutes to make a roux.
While constantly stirring soup, add roux slowly until soup is thick and creamy, about 4 minutes.
Stir in parsley, reserved potatoes, and cream.
Garnish with cheese, bacon bits, onions or all three. Serve hot.
