As soon as those leeks hit the pan mmmmmm the house smells so good. My husband and my kids insist that I make this soup as soon as the fall season begins in Michigan and throughout the snowy Sunday's. Use one of those new cool hand mixers to blend the soup at the end. You'll save a lot of time instead of tranfering to cuisinart or kitchen aid mixer. Also FYI consider doubling this recipe, you're going to want another bowl the next day:

Yummy. But very fatning. Since my hubby is kinda a bacon junkie, I used 3 slices of bacon. A guilty pleasury that he gets to enjoy rarely (or when I'm not around. One of those dishes that you can't eat too much though. A little is deliciously enough.

So fantastic! I followed it to the letter and the taste is divine! It is like having soup in a fancy restaurant. The only suggestion that I might have is if you are using regular chicken stock (instead of low sodium cut it with a little water. Mine turned out great, but it was almost too salty. Ingredients are inexpensive and it was quick to make. I even had time to throw together an apple crisp. A++++

Excellent! I made a boo boo though.....I added too much pepper (I tripled the recipe and never used white pepper so I added extra , its so spicy and I need to figure a way to cool it down....any ideas??? My bad totally I LOVE this recipe just be cautious on the pepper usage. No gettin crazy with the pepper unless you like it hot!

Excellent! I was a little intimidated by the bouquet garni, which I hadn't made, but it was super easy. I went over-board on the peppercorns and could taste it. I did go lighter on the cream. We also went 100% vegetarian, using vegetable broth. It all worked beautifully!
