I shared this recipe with you a while ago (Cream of Potatoe Leek Soup). I use butter or olive oil, 2 leeks or a mix of shallots & onions, 4-6 Yukon Gold potatoes peeled, 1 T chicken soup, mix, no thyme & after its pureed, I add either heavy cream or pareve whipping cream.I have been making it for many years & have become known for it. However I would love to try your version.
