This potato leek soup recipe was actually my first time working with leeks as the center of a recipe. I wanted to capitalize on the fact that leeks have a similar taste to onions or scallions and caramelize the outside of them first by sauteeing them. I have always known how to make potato soup and chowder. But I wanted to try something different with these leeks and organic potatoes and make it vegan for our vegan viewers. I was super pleased with the way this soup turned out with the smoky theme for flavor that went really well with the potatoes and leeks.
