    Absolutely delicious! My in-laws went nuts over this soup. It has such depth of flavor and character. We added Italian croutons for some crunch, and I used bacon because it was cheaper, but this soup is just wonderful.

    I love this - I made it many times but I also add a couple of carrots for a bit of sweetness. Delicious!

    This recipe was so simple, yet delicious. Sometimes I get worried when there aren't a lot of ingredients, I am afraid it will compromise the flavor, however this soup really blew me away, as silly as that sounds. I sautéed the leeks in a little bacon fat for extra flavor and I think it really made a difference! Thanks Emeril!

    This is a go to meal for us. The recipe makes A LOT thus I have learned that it freezes well. I agree that the immersion blender is the way to go. I also add a splash of sherry at the very end for an extra layer of flavoring. Sometimes I have added a couple of hand fulls of fresh spinach just prior to blending. A good way to sneak veggies without altering the delicious flavors of this soup.

    Genuine heart warmer for a cold winter night. I used an immersion blender and it was great for integration of all the flavors.

    Love this soup. Made it just like the stated recipe. I puree about 1/2 of it. My husband likes some potato chunks left in it. Freezes well also.

    This was absolutely fantastic. I used bacon, did not out it in the food processor, we prefer the texture. It was to die for!!

    I loved it! However, I added 1/4 cup fresh parsley. Also, make sure to really clean the leeks only using the white and light green part. I cut them finely into slices. Also added fresh cracked pepper and homemade croutons with very crusty Italian bread. Wonderful!!!
