CREAMY LEEK SOUP
Steps:
- Wash sliced leeks in a large bowl of cold water, agitating them, then lift out and drain well in a colander.
- Cook leeks, onion, carrot, celery, salt, and pepper in 4 tablespoons butter in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Peel potato and cut into 1/2-inch cubes, then add to onion mixture along with wine, stock, water, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in parsley and simmer soup, uncovered, 5 minutes. Discard bay leaf and keep soup at a bare simmer.
- Melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a 1-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, then add flour and cook roux, whisking, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add 2 cups simmering stock (from soup), whisking vigorously (mixture will be thick), then whisk mixture into remaining soup and return to a simmer, whisking.
- Blend soup in 4 batches in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids), about 1 minute per batch, transferring to a 3- to 4-quart saucepan. Reheat if necessary, then season with salt and pepper.
- Beat cream in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until it almost forms soft peaks. Serve soup topped with cream.

Steps:
- In a good-sized pot, melt butter with oil over medium heat. Wait till the foam from the butter calms down, then add leeks, cook until wilted slightly, and bright green, add garlic, cook for 1 minute.
- Add 4 Tbsp flour, cook a minute or two, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn, until it turns a richer colour of yellow.
- Next, gradually, while stirring, add chicken stock, until all is incorporated, and you do not have lumps. Use a whisk if necessary.
- Add potatoes, savory, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Cook till potatoes are tender, with the lid ajar, over medium-low heat.
- Remove about a cup of the potatoes.
- Stir in 1 cup heavy cream.
- Mash the reserved 1 cup of potatoes slightly, then stir back into the soup.
- Check for seasoning and serve!

LEEK SOUP
When leeks are perfect for picking in my area, I start making this hearty leek soup. We pick as many wild leeks as we can find, and I freeze what we don't use immediately to try and stretch the season. -Cecilia Chynoweth, Hamilton, Ontario

Steps:
- Cut up peeled and washed potatoes into 2" sized cubes.
- Peel the outer layer of leaves off of the leeks and wash well. Dice into 1" pieces.
- Chop the turkey bacon. I usually cut half a package at a time with kitchen scissors.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet on med-high heat. Add bacon, pepper well, and cook until almost done. Add leeks and continue cooking a few minutes until leeks are starting to caramelize and bacon is as crispy as you want it. Stir often.
- Meanwhile, place potatoes, cream of celery soup, broth, and 2 cups of water in a large stockpot. Mix well and heat on med-high heat.
- Season with the pepper, garlic and thyme. The measurements listed here are approximations. I probably add double these amounts, but I like my food heavily seasoned.
- Once the leek/bacon mixture is done, add to the stockpot. Add water if needed to maintain the consistency you want - more water, more soupy. Less water, more like a stew. Turn the heat down to low and simmer until the potatoes are done all the way through, about 45 minutes.

- Preheat a large Dutch oven or heavy pot on medium heat. Add oil and butter. Stir in leeks and cook 5 minutes or until softened and starting to brown.Ø
- Add broth, potatoes, carrots, dill, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir together. Bring to a boil on higher heat.
- Turn heat down to low-medium, cover, and cook about 30 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are soft. Taste to see if more salt is needed. Turn heat to low. Add cream.
- Use immersion blender to blend part or all of the vegetables if desired. We like a partial blend with about half the veggies blended smooth and half of them still chunky. (Note that you can also use a regular blender if you don't have an immersion blender.)
