RED POTATO AND LEEK SOUP
I made this when we were travelling in Ireland the summer of 2013, and the locals thought it was pretty tasty. Since then, it's become a family staple. On a cold rainy day it is perfect, and I serve it with a salad made with baby lettuces, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic and some crusty fresh bread chunks.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the potatoes and leeks on a sheet pan in a single layer. Add the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat the vegetables evenly. Roast for 40 to 45 minutes, turning them with a spatula a few times during cooking, until very tender. Add the arugula and toss to combine. Roast for 4 to 5 more minutes, until the arugula is wilted. Remove the pan from the oven and place over 2 burners. Stir in the wine and 1 cup of the chicken stock and cook over low heat, scraping up any crispy roasted bits sticking to the pan.
- In batches, transfer the roasted vegetables to a food processor fitted with the steel blade, adding the pan liquid and about 5 cups of the chicken stock to make a puree. Pour the puree into a large pot or Dutch oven. Continue to puree the vegetables in batches until they're all done and combined in the large pot. Add enough of the remaining 1 to 2 cups of stock to make a thick soup. Add the cream, creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and check the seasonings.
- When ready to serve, reheat the soup gently and whisk in 2 tablespoons white wine and 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Serve hot with an extra grating of Parmesan and crispy shallots, if using.
- Heat the oil and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it reaches 220 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
- Reduce the heat to low, add the shallots, and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, until they are a rich golden brown. The temperature should stay below 260 degrees F. Stir the shallots occasionally to make sure they brown evenly. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain well, and spread out to cool on paper towels. Once they have dried and crisped, they can be stored at room temperature, covered, for several days.
CREAMY RED POTATO LEEK SOUP
My family loves potato soup as one of our ultimate comfort foods, but our standard is to toss everything in a microwave-safe bowl and use uncooked potatoes with a little salt, pepper and cheese, with straight milk and butter as a base, and pop it in the microwave. It was alright, but after tasting other potato soups, I wanted to make a creamier and more "homey" version than the one we are used to. So I came up with this recipe using ingredients that we had on hand. It has a depth of flavor that is really awesome. The red potatoes I used were slightly sweet which compliments the leeks nicely, and of course bacon is the classic combo with leeks. Tips: Leeks are often notoriously lined with grit between their many layers, so slicing them lengthwise and then washing them with the root end up makes it easier. And, if you like, you can peel the potatoes completely, but the skins aren't tough and I like the little bit of color it adds.

Steps:
- Fry the bacon until brown and crispy. Remove to paper towels to drain. (Leave the bacon grease in the pan). When they're cooled, cut the strips into small pieces.
- Meanwhile, boil potatoes in a large pot for about 10 minutes or until soft. Drain.
- Sauté the leeks (in the same pan you used to cook the bacon) until lightly browned.
- Add the butter and flour to the sautéed leeks, stirring for about 5 minutes or so, until the butter melts and the flour is cooked.
- Add the broth and stir until mixture thickens. Add the half and half (you may need to add more, depending on how thin or thick you like it).
- Add potatoes, herbs, garlic powder and bacon into the soup; add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer covered for about 15-20 minutes Add the cheese at the very end and stir until it melts. Serve with crusty bread.
