It seems like kitchen-magic to take a few leeks, some potatoes, a little cream and vegetable broth and turn it into an incredibly flavorful soup. This soup is gooooood! A real keeper! It's one of my favorites. It was my mother's favorite too. In the months before she passed away, she'd ask me to make it for her, along with minestrone and pasta fagioli. All she wanted was soup. It felt good to soothe her with my simple soups. Isn't that what soups are all about? Pure comfort.
