[Retro Recipe Monday] Vichysoisse

I'm going to do some classics for a bit that you may conceivably eat so you can be psyched for Mad Men's premiere.  All Classic Retro Recipe Monday Recipes come from The Food Network unless otherwise stated.

Vichysoisse

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups leeks, sliced and washed
  • 4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
  • Salt and pepper
  • 8 cups water
  • 2 cup heavy cream

Directions

In large pot melt butter. Add leeks and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Add water and bring to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are tender. Place 3/4 of soup into a blender and puree, return to pot and stir in cream. Serve hot or cold

You know I read this in the feed when you posted it. I'd always wondered what this was. It sounds so good.
