VICHYSSOISE
The finest of all cold soups--and the very best thing invented in the USA! This wonderful, smooth soup can be garnished with a very few finely chopped chives. The chef at the Algonquin (where the soup originated) now sprinkles a very little curry powder, and provided it is a VERY little this can be very pleasant. Enjoy.

VICHYSSOISE
Steps:
- Heat butter until it begins to brown: In a large (6-quart) pot, heat the butter on medium high heat until it melts and foams up. Continue to heat until the foam subsides a little and the butter just begins to brown.
- Add potatoes, water or stock, salt, bring to simmer: Add the chopped potatoes, salt, and water or stock. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Cook, partially covered for 30-40 minutes, until the potatoes are completely cooked through. Remove from heat.
- Purée until smooth: Purée using an immersion blender or working in batches, blend in a blender. (Careful! With hot liquids only fill the blender 1/3 of the way full, and hold the blender top on with your hand while blending.) Purée until completely smooth. If you want an even smoother soup, you can take the extra step of pressing the purée through a sieve with a rubber spatula.
- Cool and stir in sour cream and cream: Allow to cool a bit before stirring in the sour cream and whipping cream. Allow to cool completely and chill in the refrigerator. The soup should be served just below room temperature (maybe 65°F or 18°C). If it is too cold, it won't taste as good. Add more salt to taste. Serve garnished with chopped fresh chives.

VICHYSSOISE: CHILLED POTATO AND LEEK SOUP
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large pot over medium-low heat add the butter.
- When melted, add the leeks and gently sweat (you don't want them to brown) until they are soft (about 5 minutes).
- Add the potatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer.
- Simmer until potatoes are soft and easily pierced with a fork (about 20 minutes). Remove from heat and allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Add the mixture to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Do this in small batches (no more than half full) as the hot soup creates pressure and can spray out.
- Return the soup to the pot and whisk in the cream. Stirring all the time, bring the soup to a boil and immediately turn down to a simmer. Simmer for about 5 minutes and remove from heat. If the soup is too thick, add a little water or broth.
- Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper.
- Cool quickly to room temperature, cover with plastic, then refrigerate until chilled (preferably overnight).
- Just before serving, sprinkle chives over the top.

POTATO LEEK SOUP (VICHYSSOISE)
There is nothing better on a chilly, damp day than a steaming bowl of potato leek soup; and conversely, few things are as delicious and refreshing on a hot, sweaty day than a bowl of ice cold vichyssoise.
