Cream of leek soup vichyssoise

6 servings

120 minutes

Add to favorites

A classic soup that is taught in all good culinary schools, for example in our School of "Food". Strictly speaking, there is as much potato in the soup as leek, one of the favorite products of the French, which is why vichyssoise is often called onion soup-puree. But still, the texture base is the potato, it is it, mixed with delicate cream, that gives the soup a wonderful creamy texture. Traditionally, vichyssoise is served cold, but this is not the case when can it should be strictly adhered to: vichyssoise is good in any form.
