In preparation for the frost, I decided it was time to dig up the leeks. I had planted 6, and all lived. 2 just hadn't gotten any bigger. So it is soup time. I decided to retry the potato leek soup.

3 tbsp butter
garden full of leeks (4-6)
2 small shallots cloves
1 clove garlic

Slice white parts of leeks, shallots and garlic. Fry in pot with butter for 20 minutes (maybe add shallots and garlic after 10 minutes).

3 potatoes
5 cups water
2.5 cubes vegetable bullion

Peel and slice thinly potatoes. Add with water and bullion to pot. Bring to boil, then simmer for 30 minutes. Stick silly puree device into pot until smooth.

Add 1/2 cup half and half to be Vichyssoise.
