Leek or Onion and Potato Soup


For this recipe I used leek instead of onion because I had no previous experience with leeks and this is of course, a learning experience. I had to go on Youtube and learn how to clean and cut a leek. I also had to google search the terms "whipping cream" and "food mill". It turns out that I own a food mill and have used one before. Compared to mashing the vegetables with a fork, the food mill made the soup very smooth. So there are other purposes for a food mill than just mashed potatoes. This was a reasonably easy recipe and took a fairly short amount of time. The first recipe alone has already taught me new words and phrases I didn’t know before. I feel very confident in the choice I made to do this and I’m excited to continue on to the next recipe. First one down, 523 more to go…
