CREAMY LEEK AND PARSNIP SOUP
This soup has a kind of quiet charm. Whizzed until creamy in a blender, it is a happy marriage of silky leeks and earthy parsnips - think leek and potato soup, but with more depth of character. It's very good made with water instead of broth; sautéing the leeks and parsnips very slowly, to concentrate flavor before adding liquid, is the key to success.

Steps:
- Put olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add leeks and parsnips, and stir to coat. Add the 2 teaspoons salt and pepper to taste.
- Let vegetables sizzle and cook, stirring frequently until nearly caramelized, but without browning, until softened, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add bay leaf, turmeric and garlic, and stir to coat. Increase heat to high, add water or broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes more. Taste broth and adjust seasoning.
- With a blender, purée soup to a creamy consistency. (Small batches work best.) Thin with water or broth, if necessary - it should be like a thin milkshake, not thick and porridge-like.
- Reheat the soup before serving. Serve plain, or give each bowl a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil or a dollop of crème fraîche or yogurt, if desired.

Steps:
- Cut off the dark green part of the leeks and then chop into smaller pieces (about 2".) Bring the water, the stock, and the dark green leek leaves to a boil, and then reduce heat to a simmer and allow leaves to steep for 30-45 minutes uncovered.
- While the stock is simmering, peel and chop your potatoes and parsnips. Then slice up your leeks: holding the root end in your hand, carefully insert the knife into the leek just below the root and slice downward. Turn a quarter turn and do this again. Rinse well, pulling apart the layers, and then finely chop. Great way to remove the dirt and sand that is easily stuck between all the layers.
- Toast your bread till crunchy but not brown (better to do in the oven, about 250 for 15 minutes, than the toaster) and break into big pieces.
- Strain the solids from the simmering leek stock, pressing out any liquid, and then discard them. You'll need about 3-4 cups of stock, depending on how thick you'd like your soup.
- In the pot where you made the leek stock, melt your oil or butter over medium heat. Add in the chopped white and light green leeks, and cook 5 minutes until slightly softened. Add in parsnips and potatoes for an additional 10 minutes. Add in the salt here, and adjust the heat to make sure the veggies don't brown.
- Add in the stock and mashed potatoes if using, and cook until the potatoes and leeks can be pierced with a knife (about 20 minutes). Add in the bread and allow to soak in for 5 more minutes.
- Blend in batches in your blender, or better yet use an immersion blender so you don't have to transfer to and fro. Taste, add pepper and adjust the seasoning. Serve with sour cream and some finely minced green onions or scallions on top.

Steps:
- Prepare the vegetables: Cut the potatoes into cubes. Cut the dark green part off of the leeks and discard it. (You can also save it for making a vegetable broth.) Slice the white and light green part of the leek in half and rinse well to remove any dirt. Then slice the leek into ¼ inch slices.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is crisp. Then, remove the bacon and set it aside for later. Drain the bacon drippings, leaving less than half in the pot. (about 1 tbsp drippings)
- Add the leeks and butter. Saute for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the leeks are slightly softened, but do not let leek brown. Add the garlic, salt, pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Mix in the potatoes, parsnip, broth, thyme, Italian seasoning, and water. Bring the soup to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook covered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes and parsnip and very tender. Remove the bay leaf.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup to your desired consistency. Or, transfer the soup in batches to a high-powered heat-proof blender and blend until smooth. If the soup is too thick, add a bit more broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
- Taste the soup and adjust the flavor as necessary; adding more salt to enhance the flavor.
- Serve and garnish with chopped bacon, parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley (optional). Enjoy!

Steps:
- Soup: Bring dark-green leek pieces, broth, and water to boil in large saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes. Strain broth through fine-mesh strainer into medium bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; set aside. Discard solids in strainer and rinse out saucepan.
- 2. Melt butter in now-empty saucepan over medium-low heat. When butter foams, stir in sliced leeks, onion, and 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes.
- 3. Increase heat to high, stir in reserved broth, potato, bay leaf, and herb sprig and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Add toasted bread and simmer until bread is completely saturated and starts to break down, about 5 minutes.
- 4. Remove and discard bay leaf and herb sprig. Transfer half of soup to blender and process until smooth and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and repeat with remaining soup. Note: Don't fill the blender by more than two-thirds with hot soup; if necessary, process in three batches. You can also use an immersion blender to process the soup directly in the pot.
- 5. Return soup to saucepan and bring to simmer; season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with garnish.
- Fried Leeks: Toss leeks, flour, and pinch each salt and pepper in medium bowl. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet until shimmering. Add half of leeks and fry, stirring often, until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer leeks to paper towel-lined plate; sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Repeat with remaining leeks.
