The soup was alright.. not amazing like everyone makes it out to be. I've made leek and potato soup before without a recipee and it turned out much better. I think it would have more flavour with more leeks added, afterall the potato for the most part is just there to thicken the soup...gezz i sound like a a food critic. p.s alton brown rocks most of the time. peace

This is a great soup! The use of buttermilk adds really nice contrast. If you want to make it even fancier use a sieve to make it really smooth, the immersion blender doesn't get it silky smooth.

A very tasty blend of flavors and versatile to serve as a workday lunch or an evening comfort food. You might want to leave some chunks of potato to add some texture.

Simple, easy leek recipe - and versatile to fit with your family's eating habits - and a good one to introduce leeks to family; I substituted sweet potatoes for Yukon gold b/c it's what I had on hand, which added a little sweetness, and I added a little ground ginger & left out most of the cream (to keep it on the "fit" side - family loved it. :

this was so simple and so good, my family wants me to make it again soon. And the breaks between adding ingrediants leaves time for clean-up so there's less dishes to do at the end. One of the best recipes ever!

I was searching for a great leek-potato
soup as a first course for my St. Paddy's
Day party. Many looked great, but when
I spotted Alton's, I knew that I had
found it. It did not disappoint! My
guests RAVED about it and said they would
have been content with it as a main course!
It is easy to prepare, and the subtle
but distinct ingredients marry together
perfectly. I urge you to try it What a winner!!!!!!!!

I needed to use some leeks before they went soft. Picked this recipe at random (well, almost and was pleased. The buttermilk adds a mild tang to the soup and I might be able to get my cold soup averse family to go for it this summer!!!

I made this recipe to represent the movie "Ratatouille" for an Oscar Party. The recipe provided on the published menu did not impress me. When I found this recipe I knew I had to try it and I was not disappointed at all. Fairly easy to make as well.

I used homemade chicken stock instead of vegetable stock, but other than that, I did everything exactly as the recipe said, and it was really, really fantastic. I'm the type of cook who will usually try to cut down on the amount of cream in a soup recipe, but go for the whole cup. The buttermilk is a stroke of genius and a perfect foil to the heaviness of the cream. And it is so easy to make - a definite keeper!
