Steps:
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring, until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, thyme, bay leaf, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer.
- Add all but 2 to 3 of the broccoli florets, bring back to a simmer and cook until the broccoli is tender, about 20 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Remove from the heat, and let cool at least 5 minutes. Remove and discard the thyme and carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill blender more than halfway full).
- Meanwhile, cut the reserved broccoli florets in half, lengthwise. Put in a small microwave-safe bowl, toss with a splash of water and a pinch of salt, cover and cook until bright green and crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Add the cream and reheat the soup if necessary. Adjust the consistency and seasoning with water, salt and pepper.
- Serve hot and garnish each soup with a broccoli half.

Steps:
- Trim off the stem end of each leek. Cut off enough of the green part to leave a main section of about seven inches. Split the leeks lengthwise in half. Cut the split leeks crosswise into one-and-one half-inch lengths. There should be about eight cups loosely packed. Rinse thoroughly in cold water. Drain.
- Put the leeks in a saucepan or kettle and add enough water to cover. Bring to the boil and simmer, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until tender. Drain thoroughly.
- Put the leeks into the container of a food processor or blender and puree until fine. Scrape the mixture into a saucepan and start beating. Add the salt and pepper to taste, butter and nutmeg. Stir until piping hot. Serve.

- In a pot large enough to hold all of the broccoli, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the water, salt, and pepper and stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Add the broccoli and bring the liquid to a boil; cover the pot tightly and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the broccoli is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Transfer all of the contents of the pot, including the liquid, to a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the remaining butter and the thyme and process until broken down but not completely smooth. Add the sour cream and process again until smooth. Taste and adjust the salt, if necessary (I usually add up to 3/4 teaspoon more salt). Transfer to a serving bowl, and top with a pad of butter, if using, and chives. (Note: if your food processor is small, you may need to work in batches.)
- Make-Ahead Instructions: The purée can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and refrigerated. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.

- In a large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium-low heat and add the garlic cloves and chopped leeks. Saute for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the chopped broccoli, vegetable broth, water, fresh parsley, and cayenne pepper. Make sure the liquid is leveled or even slightly above the ingredients. Here is where you can add more water or broth to be leveled if needed.
- Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Then lower the heat to the lowest setting, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and season the broth with salt to taste. Optional: you can season with black pepper to your preference, but not required.
- Turn off heat and puree in a few batches in your blender or use a handheld immersion to blend and puree the soup.
