This creamy soup gets its luscious texture not just from heavy cream but also from the starchy potatoes. Russet (also known as Idaho) potatoes have a soft, dry white flesh that becomes velvety smooth when pureed. Tons of flavor comes from the leeks. They can often have grit between their layers and should be washed thoroughly before adding to the recipe: Brush away any dirt on the outside, then slice the white parts and transfer to a large bowl of cold water. Swirl the leeks around to release any residual dirt, then drain and repeat with more water until completely clean. Wash and use the green ends to flavor chicken or vegetable stock.

POTATO LEEK GRATIN RECIPE - NYT COOKING

Layer thinly sliced potatoes in a gratin dish, and then take your time sautéing the leeks, letting them turn a little golden and crisp around the edges, which brings out their sweetness. Add the leeks to the potatoes, and using the same pan in which you cooked the leeks, scrape up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan with a mix of cream, garlic, thyme and nutmeg, pouring that over the potatoes and leeks.
