LEEK, TURNIP AND RICE SOUP
Yield 4 servings
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- 1. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven and add the leeks. Cook, stirring often, until leeks are beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the turnips and continue to cook, stirring often, until the turnips are translucent and the leeks thoroughly tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the stock or water, salt, bay leaf and rice. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. If serving as is, add pepper, stir in the parsley and serve, over croutons if desired, passing Parmesan at the table for sprinkling. Note: For a puréed soup, use an immersion blender (or a regular blender, working in batches and placing a kitchen towel over the top to avoid splashing) until the mixture is very smooth. Return to the pot, heat through and adjust salt. Stir in the pepper and parsley and serve, passing Parmesan at the table for sprinkling.
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.
LEEK AND TURNIP SOUP WITH KALE AND WALNUT GARNISH
I recommend that you make a quick stock with the leek greens, onion and turnips trimmings while you chop the vegetables. Just throw them in a pot with a couple of quarts of water, bring to a simmer, cover partially and simmer 20 minutes. Strain through a fine strainer into a bowl. Kale, which comes from the same botanical family as turnips, makes a complementary garnish and the crunchy walnuts contrast beautifully with the smooth, sweet-tasting soup.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the leeks and continue to cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic smells fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Add turnips, potatoes or rice, water or stock, bay leaf, and salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes to an hour. The turnips should be very tender. Remove the bay leaf.
- While the soup is simmering, blanch the kale in boiling salted water just until tender, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, or steam for about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, drain and squeeze out excess water. Place the squeezed bunch of kale on your cutting board and slice into thin slivers. Toss with the walnut oil.
- Using a hand blender, or in batches in a regular blender, purée the soup. If using a regular blender fill only half way and cover the top with a towel pulled down tight, rather than using the lid, because hot soup will jump and push the top off if the blender is closed airtight. Strain and return to the pot (turnips are fibrous and the soup will have a better texture if you strain it). Return to the pot and heat through, stirring. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with a spoonful of greens and sprinkling of walnuts.

WINTER VEGETABLE SOUP WITH TURNIPS, CARROTS, POTATOES AND LEEKS
I use the food mill instead of a blender - immersion or regular - because I love the texture of the soup when it's put through the mill's coarse blade, resulting in a flavorful, colorful mixture that you can almost chew on. But you can use a blender to purée the soup. The texture will be coarsest - which is what you want - if you use an immersion blender.

Steps:
- In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, combine the leeks, garlic, carrots, celery, turnips, potatoes, bouquet garni, 1 1/2 quarts water, 2 to 3 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 40 to 45 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.
- Pass the soup through the coarse blade of a food mill (or purée using a blender or an immersion blender).
- Return soup to the pot and whisk in 1/4 cup crème fraîche (or more, to taste). Heat through, taste and adjust seasonings (be generous with salt and pepper). To serve, garnish each bowl with a spoonful of crème fraîche and a sprinkle of parsley or tarragon.

TURNIP, LEEK AND POTATO SOUP
A simple French soup that works well regardless of which vegetable gets the emphasis. This is a simple French soup. If you want to vary the proportions of vegetables you can; it works well whether you emphasize the turnips, as I do here, the leeks or the potatoes. Turnips have a slightly bitter edge, and tarragon makes a lovely sweet garnish. Chives would also work.

ITALIAN TURNIP SOUP MELLOWED WITH RICE
An Italian friend of mine had just made his yearly trip back home, and along with a bottle of wine, shared this recipe with me. I was skeptical at first, wondering how such a mild vegetable like turnips could make an interesting soup. I have since made it 5 times in a 2 week time span...this should let you know how astonishing it turned out! I even made this for a dear friend who suffers from massive food allergies, using strictly olive oil to saute the turnips and NO Parmesan cheese stirred directly into the soup; she raved about it so much that she demanded the recipe before I left her house. If you chose to make this Vegan, it takes twice as long for the turnips to brown, and the flavour isn't as deep, but it is still a wonderful soup! Try it today and amaze your friends with it's complex nature yet simple ingredients!

Steps:
- Note: I treated these like apples; I cut them into quarters, used a paring knife to peel them, and then diced them; At the market, 3 large turnips= one pound; Just weigh them at the grocery store to get the right amount.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the olive oil over high heat.
- When the foam subsides, sauté the turnips, tossing frequently, for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Add the broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat to moderate, and cook, covered for 10 minutes.
- After that, stir in the rice and cook the mixture, covered, until the rice is al dente, about 15 minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Just before serving, stir in the parsley and the Parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately.
