Potato and leek soup is a classic, comfort-filled dish with roots in French cuisine. This creamy soup is made by blending tender potatoes, mild-flavored leeks, and vegetable or chicken broth, often enriched with cream or milk for a velvety texture. Its simplicity highlights the natural flavors of the ingredients, and herbs like thyme or parsley add a fresh touch. Potatoes provide energy-boosting carbohydrates, while leeks are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, along with beneficial antioxidants. The dish is naturally gluten-free and can be adapted for vegan diets by substituting cream with plant-based options. Despite its nutritional perks, the addition of cream and butter increases its fat and calorie content, so portion size matters. Enjoyed warm, it’s a nourishing option for chilly days that balances comfort and nutritional benefits.
