    This is a rich and delicious soup. And very easy to prepare. I added more salt and pepper, as well as a teaspoon of dried thyme, to perk it up a little. When I blended the leek-potato mixture, I deliberately left some chunks of potato to add interesting texture to the soup. I'll definitely make this again.

    The flavors were great, but I think that the recipe calls for way too much cream & buttermilk. I would half the amount recommended.

    Love this recipe!!! I did add black pepper, more salt, and some sugar. And wow this is a great soup!!! If you're going to have guests over for a dinner party this is a good soup to have or for a regular family meal too : impressed!

    I just had this soup at a British restaurant this last weekend and I liked it so much, I wanted to try and make it myself. Never used leeks before and I am now a major fan. What a great mild root it is!!! I can see just doing step one of this recipe and serving the cooked leeks over mashed potatos. Anyway -- This soup was fabulous! I like more "chunk" in my soup, so I added an extra potato or two and didn't puree it completely. I put the exact dairy levels as directed, but next time I would probably try to cut back on that a little like others have done to compare. Another keeper!!

    So SO good! I made it just like the directions. I did not have an immersion blender so I used my food processor, blending two batches and then putting them back in the pot and adding the rest of the ingredients. I also put a whole lotta snipped fresh chives and added bacon. Will definitely make this again!

    Loved it, as did my family. Only tweaked it slightly by using half and half instead of heavy cream, and made my own buttermilk cheat (milk and lemon juice. It was fantastic, will make it again!

    The best! Next time I may try half and half to replace the cream but as written this one's a total winner.
