Course Soup

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. cleaned leeks sliced thin
  • 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • heavy pinch kosher salt
  • 14 ounces Yukon Gold potatoes approximately, 3
  • 1 quart vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 tsp. white pepper
  • 1 Tbsp. snipped chives

Instructions
 

  • In a 6-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the leeks and a heavy pinch of salt and sweat for 5 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium-low and cook until the leeks are tender, approximately 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  • 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.
