Steps:
- Chop the leeks into small pieces.
- In a 6-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the leeks and a heavy pinch of salt and sweat for 5 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium-low and cook until the leeks are tender, approximately 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the potatoes and the vegetable broth, increase the heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and gently simmer until the potatoes are soft, approximately 45 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and puree the mixture with an immersion blender until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream, buttermilk, and white pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired. Sprinkle with chives and serve immediately, or chill and serve cold.

POTATO LEEK SOUP RECIPE | ROBERT IRVINE | FOOD NETWORK
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.
