Ingredients
- 4 shots dry wine (white)
- 1 1/2 c whipping cream
- 2 c double strength chicken broth
- 1 c potato (peeled)
- 1/4 c blue cheese crumbled
- 2 tb butter (unsalted)
- 2 tb onion (finely chopped)
- 1 slice leek well (rinsed)
Melt butter in a heavy saucepan. Add onion and leek and cook slowly; stirring often, until soft. Stir in broth, then add potato. Cover and cook until potato is tender. Cool, then process in a food processor or blender until pureed. In another saucepan, bring cream to a gentle simmer, cook until just slightly reduced, then stir in leek mixture and heat until very hot (but don't boil). Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Serve hot. Sprinkle 1 Tbl. cheese over each serving and offer a shot of the wine on the side. Hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Slurp, slurp.
