Instructions
- 1
Rinse the sliced leeks thoroughly to remove grit, then sweat them in the melted butter over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes until soft but not browned.
- 2
Add the diced potatoes and chicken stock, bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes until the potatoes are completely tender.
- 3
Puree the soup until silky smooth using a blender, working in batches and being careful with the hot liquid.
- 4
Stir in the heavy cream and white pepper, season with salt to taste, then strain through a fine sieve for an extra-smooth texture if desired.
- 5
Chill the soup thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, then serve cold in chilled bowls topped with a generous sprinkle of fresh chives.
