| Start with leeks, sautéed in olive oil. |
 |
| Next, add thinly sliced (peeled) potato. |
 |
| Add chicken broth and let simmer for half an hour. |
 |
| It is "getting good," as my grandma used to say. |
 |
| Puree in blender or, for a rustic soup, simply mash. |
 |
| Add cream and heat. |
 |
| Almost ready! |
 |
| Instead of chives, I chose freshly grated nutmeg for garnish., |
 |
| Hot today, cold tomorrow -- good either way. |
I didn't measure anything and used only one leek, half an onion, and one potato in this soup inspired by a recipe for vichyssoise in Life Is Meals: A Food Lover's Book of Days, by James & Kay Salter.
