This Vichyssoise soup is best with fresh leeks, but that is hard in November when it is National Vichyssoise Day. I prefer to use half and half over milk, it gives it a creamier texture, but you substitute for milk if you prefer.
Many people credit this dish to France or a French Chef that grew up near the town of Vichy France. Others credit it to originating in America by Julia Child, but it doesn’t matter who created this dish originally. My version is good either hot or chilled, I prefer hot but that is my preference.
You can substitute vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.
