POTATO AND WILD LEEK SOUP



Potato and Wild Leek Soup image

Leeks (some call them "ramps" ) grow wild here in the foothills of the Alleghenies. I adpated this from a recipe that I found online. The ingredient list below says "ramps" because Recipezaar kept changing it from "wild leeks" to "leek" which is a completely different vegetable.

Provided by Barb 3663

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large-bunch ramps (wild leeks-recipezaar wouldn't recognize it)
3 lbs potatoes
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 cups water
2 cups milk
4 bouillon cubes (vegetarian chicken flavored)
pepper, freshly ground to taste

Steps:

  • Scrub and dice potatoes, skin and all.
  • Melt butter in a 5 quart pot, add diced potatoes and salt and saute till lightly golden.
  • Add water and bouillon cubes, simmer.
  • Wash and trim the leeks.
  • Using kitchen shears snip half of of the leeks into small pieces and add to the pot.
  • Simmer till potatoes are tender.
  • Blend half the soup with a stick blender or in a regular blender till creamy and thick. Add back into the pot.
  • Add milk slowly. Heat till once again hot but not boiling.
  • Snip the remaing leeks into the pot, do not boil, just keep warm.

  • Pour just enough water in a 10 inch pan to cover the base.
  • Add the leeks, butter and maple syrup to the water and bring to a boil.
  • Cover with a tight fitting lid and steam until all the water evaporates.
  • Remove the lid from the pan and sauté for a few more minutes until the leeks are tender.
  • When ready to serve, the leaves will look(and taste) like cooked spinach.
