I typically adore Ina's food...but I found this recipe to be unremarkable. Leeks are among my favorite, but even with their flavor and proper seasoning, it received a big shrug from my husband. Not bad, but a keeper.

Ina does it again and again and again! Just made this soup with a zucchini from my daughter's garden and it is terrific! I tasted it when it was hot and it was great (even without the cream!. Now waiting for it to cool and chill, but I'm sure it will be wonderful. The bits of green from the zucchini give it a great look and I will make this often. Thanks, as always,Ina. . .

This soup was extremely easy and delicious. I wasn't sure how I would like cold soup, but I was better able to taste all the flavors when it was cold. I added a bit of cayenne and nutmeg, which I really liked with it. I made it the night before and let it cool to serve for a dinner party along with salad with brie baked with pistachios and honey, crostini, and apples. I served the soup in mugs and topped with some zucchini ribbons (I quickly ran a vegetable peeler over zucchini, pistachios, and lemon juice. I can always depend on Ina!

Loved it with some I thought improvements- half and half instead of cream, skip butter, added some quatre epices ( French spice mix, less potato more zukkini for less calories , and immersion blender instead of her method. Came out heavenly and I don't even like puréed soups ever!

Love this. So good especially now that warmer weather is here. This was easy to prepare and the taste was great. I used a food processor and it work out perfectly. Creamy and cool. I have had Vichyssoise before but never with the zucchini. My husband and I both loved this. We are trying to not eat so much meat in our family so I paired this with grilled veggie panini. Perfect summer dinner. Tip** Trader Joes has leeks in the freezer section all cleaned and chopped for you! Can you say timesaver ??

I thought it was great! It was easier than I thought it would be. I only had a blender and would have liked more texture but it was yummy. Reminded me of a potato soup with a little veggie in it. I halved it and only used 1 bunch of leeks and thought it was plenty.

A wonderful soup! Since I didn't have a food mill handy, I peeled the potatoes and zucchini and then put everything in the blender and it turned out perfectly. I prefer to add more cream than he recipe calls for so I used fat-free half-and-half. Everyone at the dinner party raved about the soup.

Very nice! We like meat, so after we pureed it, I added some nice chunks of ham. It is delicious
