Recipe
In large soup pot over high heat, brown sausage. Drain off fat. Add onions, celery and bell pepper, and saute until onions are transparent.
Add brandy and reduce until almost gone, about 2 minutes.
Add marjoram, rosemary, basil, bay leaf, potatoes, water, chicken base and corn. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
Add milk and whipping cream and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Whisk in roux gradually, letting soup thicken to desired consistency (you may have some roux left). Season to taste with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
