Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Vegetables

    Clean the leeks thoroughly, removing any grit. Slice the leeks, potatoes, and onion into thin pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a large pot, add the sliced leeks, potatoes, and onion. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Blending and Cooling

  1. 3

    Blend the Soup

    Once the vegetables are tender, remove the pot from heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.

  2. 4

    Add Cream and Season

    Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and white pepper. Mix well to combine.

  3. 5

    Cool the Soup

    Allow the soup to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until chilled.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the chilled vichyssoise into bowls. Garnish with chopped chives before serving.
