Potato Leek Soup for Christmas Dinner


Ha, it's my 4th Christmas after coming to USA.

And this year I decided to cook potato leek soup for our Christmas Dinner.

I knew this soup when we visited Williamsburg second time. We tried to have lunch at one of the taverns but can't make it because we didn't want to wait for 40 minutes in cold weather.

I always like leek base soup, so I was very happy to find this wonderful recipe on line.

I've got to say, this is the soup that may needs a lot of technology. I used my food processor for slicing potatoes and then later the hand blender to puree a bit the soup.

And the result was wonderful. Hubby kept praising it every minute when eating it. I'm happy that we had a warm and creamy holiday soup for this Christmas.

And at night finally finally I finished watching the masterpiece movie of Christmas: It's a wonderful life. I fell asleep every time while watching it in the previous years.
