 "I actually served this soup hot since I was looking for a potato leek soup to serve as a starter for Thanksgiving. It was amazing!!! I made a few adjustments: I cooked 3 rashers of bacon first. Took out the cooked bacon and sauteed the leeks in the fat instead of butter. I crumbled the bacon and used as garnish with some shaved parmesan... Delish!!!
I also added 3 cloves of garlic to the leek mixture which gave it more dimension." - GourmetT
