Pureed Spinach-Potato Soup

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 1/2 pounds (about 5 small) Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1/4 cup dry sherry or white wine
• 1 quart homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken broth
• 2 bunches (about 1 1/4 pounds) spinach, tough stems removed, leaves rinsed well and dried
• Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
2. Add the onion, garlic, and potatoes; stir to coat.
3. Cook, stirring, 2 minutes.
4. Pour the sherry, broth, and 2 cups water into the pan; stir to combine.
5. Bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover, and simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 15 minutes.
7. Stir the spinach into the pan, and cook until wilted and bright green, about 3 minutes.
8. Remove from heat.
9. Puree the soup with an immersion blender until smooth.
10. (Alternatively, use a regular blender, working in batches so as not to fill the jar more than halfway.
11. Return the mixture to the saucepan.)
12. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
