POTATO LEEK SOUP (VICHYSSOISE)
There is nothing better on a chilly, damp day than a steaming bowl of potato leek soup; and conversely, few things are as delicious and refreshing on a hot, sweaty day than a bowl of ice cold vichyssoise.

Steps:
- Chop the leeks into small pieces.

- Turn off the heat and puree the mixture with an immersion blender until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream, buttermilk, and white pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately, or chill and serve cold.
VICHYSSOISE
Vichyssoise is a creamy and smooth soup made from potatoes and leeks. Traditionally served chilled, it can be enjoyed hot too if the season calls for a warming soup instead. Serve it as the first course in an elegant luncheon or as your main meal with a green salad on the side.

CHILLED POTATO AND LEEK SOUP - VICHYSSOISE
Most recipes for chilled potato soup have lots and lots of heavy cream thus fat. This recipe is very simple to put together and very low in fat. As it chills it becomes super thick and creamy. After having tried this both chilled and at room temperature, I highly recommend room temperature. The recipe is from William-Sonoma Essentials of Healthy Cooking.

Steps:
- Prepare leeks by trimming off the tough, dark green leaves and the bottom of the root. Then cut length-wise and wash in between each leaf, as dirt deposits can gather deep inside the leek. Then, thinly slice.
- Melt butter in a soup pot over low-medium heat.
- Add sliced leeks, stirring occasionally. Cook until leeks are tender, but not browned. This may take 15-20 minutes.
- Add sliced potatoes and chicken or vegetable stock. If using vegetable stock, you may add a little powdered chicken stock mix to enhance the flavor. Stir.
- Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and cook until potatoes are tender.
- Once potatoes are tender, you can puree the mixture using a hand blender in the same pot or by doing batches in a blender. If you want a very fine texture, put the mixture through a sieve after pureeing.
- Add cream, salt (optional), pepper, basil, and paprika. You can thicken the mixture by adding a tablespoon or two of flour or corn starch. You can thin the mixture by adding more water or stock. This depends upon your preferred texture and consistency.
- Reheat gently to serve warm or hot. Or you can serve very cold with cut chives as garnish. Enjoy!

CROCK POT POTATO AND LEEK SOUP (VICHYSSOISE)
I got the original recipe for this from Cooks.com. I love potato and leek soup and didn't want to spend the time watching this or heating up the kitchen so doing it in my crock pot was perfect. When this was finished cooking I pureed the soup. You don't have to do this if you don't want to, but this is the way I like it.
