I love potato/leek soup, but I don't love it cold. I also love it with cream, but can't make it that way for my family, so I serve it hot, add a few more things, and make it delish. This recipe includes an herb pistou that I found. Pistou like pesto works well stirred into things as a garnish or as a burst of fresh flavors.
