Add potatoes to the broth mixture and bring to a boil; season with onion powder and garlic powder. Reduce heat, add half-and-half to broth mixture, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Melt the butter over medium heat in a large soup pot. Add the leeks and garlic and cook, stirring regularly, until soft and wilted, about 10 minutes. Adjust the heat as necessary so as not to brown.
- Add the potatoes, broth, bay leaves, thyme, salt and pepper to pot and bring to a boil. Cover and turn the heat down to low. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are very soft.
- Fish out the thyme sprig and bay leaves, then purée the soup with a hand-held immersion blender until smooth. (Alternatively, use a standard blender to purée the soup in batches; see note.) Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If soup is too thin, simmer until thickened. If it's too thick, add water or stock to thin it out. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
- Note: If using a standard blender to purée the soup: be sure not to fill the jar more than halfway; leave the hole in the lid open and cover loosely with a dishtowel to allow the heat to escape; and pour blended soup into a clean pot.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The soup can be frozen, without the cream, for up to 3 months. Defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat until hot. Once heated through, add the cream and bring to a simmer before serving.

CREAMY LEEK SOUP
I usually pair leeks with potatoes to make a creamy puree, but this time I used basmati rice, and the results are comforting and delicious. You could add something creamy to this if you wanted to - yogurt or milk or creme fraiche. But I found it utterly satisfying with no further enrichment.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot and add the leeks and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until leeks are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and stir for about a minute, until the garlic smells fragrant. Add the stock or water, the rice, bay leaf and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Taste and adjust salt. Remove the bay leaf and discard.
- Puree the soup with an immersion blender or a food mill, or in batches in a blender, taking care to remove the lid or take out the center insert and to cover with a towel to avoid hot splashes. Return to the pot, heat through, and add pepper to taste and a pinch of cayenne if desired. Serve hot or cold. If you wish you can thin out with milk, plain yogurt or a combination of milk and creme fraiche. Garnish with chopped chives or croutons.

Steps:
- 1. Cut off the tough green tops and the beard ends of the leeks. Using a sharp knife, make a cut down the center of the leeks but not all the way through the beard end, let that connected. Turn over the leeks and make another cut like the first but not all the way through. Cut the leeks into thin slices and rinse well in cold water in a pot to clean out any sand in the stalks. Strain in a colander.
- 2. Slice celery. Melt the butter in a large pot and add the leeks and celery. Cook over medium low heat until tender.
- 3. Add the chicken broth, salt and pepper and the peeled, diced potatoes to the leeks and cover and simmer until potatoes are tender but not falling apart.
- 4. Add the half and half but don't boil, just heat until broth is hot. At this time if you are adding ham or bacon put it in the pot and let it heat. If soup is too thin just mash some of the potatoes with the back of a wooden spoon until soup is of the consistency you like.

Correct the seasoning, to taste, and puree with a handheld immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor.
- Whisk in the cream and reheat before serving. Top each serving with a dollop of creme fraiche and sprinkling of fresh chives.

Steps:
- Slice the roots off of the leaks then chop off the top dark green stalks; discard. Slice the remaining white/light green stalks in half lengthwise, then in half again (see photos in post). Add sliced leeks to a bowl of cold water and stir them around to separate them from each other and to dislodge any dirt. Scoop them out with a fine mesh sieve, dry, thinly slice and set aside.
- Melt the butter in the olive oil over medium-low heat in a Dutch oven or large soup pot. Add the leeks, carrots and celery and cook, stirring often, until vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes (we are sweating the vegetables, the leeks should not brown). Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds.
- Add the potatoes, broth, chicken bouillon and all remaining seasonings. Cover pot, leaving just a crack open, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer an additional 10-15 minutes, until potatoes are soft. Discard bay leaves.
- Working in batches, remove desired amount of soup to a high-powered blender, don't fill blender more than 1/3 way full or it can overflow and explode. For a smooth soup, puree all of the soup; for a chunkier soup, don't puree all of the soup. Blend until very smooth, being careful to let smoke escape the blender or it will explode. You can do this by leaving the blender cap open and covering with a paper towel or loose dishtowel. You may also use an immersion blender but I don't find the soup gets as smooth.
- Pour pureed soup back into pot and stir in lemon juice. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

- Remove from the heat. With a hand-held immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor, puree the soup until smooth. Season, to taste, with salt and ground white pepper. Ladle into soup bowls and garnish with parsley and 1 tablespoon of soft herbed cheese. Serve immediately.

- In a large soup pot on medium heat, add in your olive oil, onion, garlic and leek and sauté for 5- 10 min, keep stirring until leeks are soft.
- Next, add in chopped potatoes, broth, and spices, stir and bring to a boil. Once you’ve reached a boil, lower the temperate to low and cover for 30-40 minutes until potatoes are fork tender. Stir occasionally so nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot. I like to leave it simmering for an extra 10 minutes longer once the potatoes are cooked so the flavor and spices can combine really well.
- Once your soup has fully cooked, turn off the heat and allow to sit for 10-15 min. Transfer soup to a high speed blender, I used a Vitamix. Blend until well pureed, you will probably have to do it in at least 2 batches based on the yield of this recipe.
- Once your soup is smooth, you can transfer it back to your soup pot or a fancy soup serving bowl and garnish with the remaining chives.

- Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender with the lid vented. Add more stock or water if it’s too thick. Process gently; over blending will create a gummy texture. Alternatively, use a hand held immersion blender.

- In a large soup pot, add the sliced leeks and bacon. Cook on medium heat until leeks are transparent. If you are using very lean bacon, you may need to add 2 tablespoons of butter. It’s important that the leeks should not burn. (If there is not enough fat from the bacon that is rendered out, the leeks will burn.)
- Add the potatoes to the pot and then add the chicken stock. If all of your chicken stock fully covers the potatoes, then you do not need to add additional water. Cook potatoes until tender - this will take about 15-20 minutes.
- When the potatoes are fully cooked remove a cup or two of the liquid and puree the soup using an immersion blender. If you do not have an immersion blender, you can use a regular blender.
