Creamy Leek and Parsnip Soup
Ricardo @tallcook
This super easy recipe is by David Tanis. Sautéing the leeks and parsnips very slowly, to concentrate flavor before adding liquid, is the key to success.

- 1
Put olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add leeks and parsnips, and stir to coat. Add the 2 teaspoons salt and pepper to taste.
- 2
Let vegetables sizzle and cook, stirring frequently until softened but without browning, 10 to 15 minutes.
- 3
Add bay leaf, turmeric and garlic, and stir to coat. Increase heat to high, add water or broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes more. Taste broth and adjust seasoning.
- 4
Remove bay leaf! With a blender, purée soup to a creamy consistency. Thin with water or broth, if desired.
- 5
Reheat the soup before serving. Serve plain, or give each bowl a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice and/or a dollop of crème fraîche or yogurt, if desired.

I attempted to recreate a soup I had at Fleur de Sel, a restaurant in New York. (The soup at the restaurant had boiled chestnuts added to it.)I think it would be hard to find parsnips in Japan, but if you can get them, please try making this soup. By the way, parsnips are part of the parsley family. Recipe by K-ana

Creamy Curried Roasted Cauliflower Leek Soup
Yes, that title is a mouthful, but that's the best description! I wanted an Indian inspired dish, and this is what came about. Paleo, vegan/vegetarian, gluten free, and oh so tasty! FYI Using honey will transition this dish from vegan to vegetarian, and depending on your paleo philosophy you may not consider it paleo at that point either. That is why it's optional. ;)

Potato & Leek Soup
I moved to Denmark a couple of months ago. In this cold country, soups and lentils are the best comfort food one can ask for. When the weather is dark and grim, a large bowl of soup fuels my soul.
Leek & Potato Soup
Here is a standard recipe for leek, which are grown in the cold winter.For variation, add cheese to change the flavor of this simple soup.The key is to cook the leek slowly to bring out the flavor, but don't burn it.If you like a richer flavor, substitute part of the amount of milk with heavy cream.This has a substantially thick consistency. Adjust the thickness as desired. Recipe by KT121

The soup recipe involves making a purée out of the boiled veggies, but I was in a rush so we ended up with this rustic version. A super simple and hearty meal for a cold winter’s day.
Leek and potato lumpy soup
I'm not the best at cooking so everything I make is easy and beyond tasty! Never made a leek and potato soup before and I mashed several recipes together. Some say add onion. I hate onion so I didn't add it. But you can add a cup in if you want. Same with pepper (add to taste) and maybe try some cheese grated in? Make it your own and don't worry as long as you have leeks and potatoes...it's a soup...

I like to serve this soup warm or cold in small glasses as amuse-bouche. I prefer it mild in order to taste the subtlety of the ingredients but if you and your guests are into bolder flavors, add cayenne or hot sauce.

Do you want something hearty without clams or shrimp? Have potatoes and leeks. You won't forget it ! The leeks gives the soups that bite with the radishes with a small kick from the peppers. Here walks in the sweetness from the parsnips !

Creamy Potato Soup
My trick to maintaining a smooth and creamy broth without completely breaking down the potatoes and creating a grainy texture is to simply cook the potatoes first, then set them aside while I make the soup base. This is my go-to simple version that I use as a base for multiple possibilities of add-ins.

I've been making this for a few years. Sometimes I add carrots or other vegetables to the soup. My kids like to put cheddar cheese in theirs before eating.
Purple Potato Sage & Leek Soup
I decided to grow purples in my garden last year and the yield was fantastic, but I didn't know what to do with them. This year had a better yield than last year and I was armed with some ideas for experiments. Some one recommended a Potato Leek Soup so I wanted to try one. This recipe is my own adaption from a handful of google searches. Came out great, I will be making this often!
