Parsnip Leek and Potato Soup image

I love soups that you just throw everything in a pot and let cook until tender......and then you puree to a marvelous creamy textured masterpiece. Parsnips are seasonal and readily available in the winter months. If you are unfamiliar with them, this recipe will be a good way to get acquainted with them. Make sure when cleaning...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 c water
4 tsp better than bouillon vegetable base
1 lb parsnips, peeled, rough chop
1 lb leeks, cleaned, chopped, white and medium green parts only
3 or 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled, 1 inch dice
2 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp dry thyme leaves
1 large bay leaf
3 dash(es) nutmeg

Steps:

  • 1. Place all of the ingredients, except nutmeg, in a large stockpot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover with lid for 35 minutes.
  • 2. Turn off heat and leave covered until cool enough to purée.
  • 3. To purée, use an immersion blender. I do not remove the bay leaf, I just keep it in the mix.
  • 4. Once puréed, add the nutmeg and stir well. If desired, you can add heavy cream or half and half . If so, adjust salt and pepper.

The soup was too thick for my liking. I would add more broth next time.
