Yield: 8 serving(s)
Ingredients: 2 leeks, thinly sliced; ⅓ cup (75 g) butter; 2 cups (320 g) russet potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice (about 2 potatoes); 4 cups (1 litre) 3.25 % milk (see note); 4 cups (1 litre) chicken broth; 3 oz (85 g) old-fashioned ham, diced (about 3 to 4 thin slices); ½ pita bread, diced; Chervil or parsley leaves

Note from Ricardo

The 3.25% milk produces a rich soup without having to add cream.

The cream of leek soup freezes very well. Let it thaw completely in the refrigerator, then reheat it over medium-low heat while stirring constantly.
