    Super Good! Used 1/2c light butter milk and 1/2c ff half and half - but was already tasty before adding that in! I left out the pepper too - unintentionally - I don't think anyone missed it. We will definitley be having this again.

    Delicious! I left out the buttermilk because we were out, but still turned out great. Not hard, just takes a little patience.

    My wife being a vegetarian, I was glad to find a potato leek soup that doesn't contain chicken stock or bacon. While it would be easy to leave the two out of any recipe (substituting vegetable stock for chicken stock I always found the other recipes lacking something. Yet again, Alton comes through. Many thanks.

    Really great! This is my new go-to potato-leek soup recipe. I was skeptical, thinking it sounded like something was going to be missing, but I wouldn't change a thing. Okay... I did change one thing... I didn't have vegetable stock, so I used chicken stock. Unlike some other folks, I did *not* find it to have too much dairy. I thought it was the perfect amount.

    LOVE this soup. The hardest part for me is washing the leeks. I love how simple the seasonings are, but yet it is so flavorful. I use my own chicken stock instead of veggie stock and I puree the leeks in the stock before i add the potatoes, then pulse the potatoes a little at the end (my bf likes to have chunks of potato. one of my favorite soups, and i love soup!

    Amazing soup...!!! I followed the recipe exactly as written, except that I had no buttermilk...My foodie husband grabbed some sour cream, a little lowfat milk, and some fresh lemon juice - whisked it all up, and voila! something like buttermilk... We loved the soup, and we are planning on making it again really soon.

    The only things I changed when I made this recipe was that I did not puree it (I just whisked it a bit when I added the dairy components, and I made about half the amount as Alton's original recipe.
    This was a very soul-warming soup that I will make often! It was fairly inexpensive, easy, and most of all delicious. I served this warm since it is winter, but I will try this cold as well when the weather is warmer. A permanent addition to my recipe box!
