3 T butter<\/p>\n
1 bunch of leeks, trimmed, sliced, and washed<\/p>\n
4 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks<\/p>\n
1 quart of broth<\/p>\n
1 c. whipping cream<\/p>\n
chives<\/p>\n
Boil the potatoes until a fork can easily pierce one of the chunks; drain the water. Saut\u00e9e the leek slices in melted\u00a0butter\u00a0until softened. Add the potato chunks and mash together with broth until it is a good consistency for hearty soup, adding broth to lighten it. Use an immersion blender or place just a few cups in a standing blender and puree (be very careful about blending hot soup, and NEVER fill a blender with anything hot). Return to the pan and stir in the cream. Garnish with chives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
