Use cream. The goal hear is a richer mouth feel.

I have never used a leek. I think it was $3.99 per pound in whole foods and I threw half of it away because I removed the green part. Are leek tops ever used for anything? I cannot decide between the apple and maple syrup and cream vs milk. I am not sure if I asked before but do you have a cream brand preference? Everything I have tried tastes very bad. I once saw that JP Licks uses a cream brand for their ice cream that does not sell to stores but I cannot remember what it was. Cream suggestions appreciated and thank you for this recipe!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01569119271627192710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17422713.post-26802951681862076302008-11-30T22:31:00.000-05:002008-11-30T22:31:00.000-05:00Mmmm... delicious.

I made this tonight, substituting an acorn suash for the roasted half and butternut for the non-roasted half (what I had on hand), and threw in a diced green apple after the leeks and onions had cooked, but otherwise followed the recipe. It was absolutely delicious (many contented sighs around the table), although next time I may hold back on the syrup a little.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17422713.post-39091605887697217092008-11-15T13:03:00.000-05:002008-11-15T13:03:00.000-05:00I love the idea of adding apples!

That makes it even more decadent. I am sure there are infinite variations on this basic recipe. If you like nutmeg, cinnamon, etc, by all means use them. I am not big on all the "pumpkin pie" spices, so when I use them, I use them sparingly, but if you like them, you can use as much as you want.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>-HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12271344371852988017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17422713.post-22331860409679398272008-11-11T15:57:00.000-05:002008-11-11T15:57:00.000-05:00Just a question...Looking at the Ten Tables menu I...Just a question...<BR/><BR/>Looking at the Ten Tables menu I notice the soup now being offered includes nutmeg and creme fraiche.<BR/><BR/>I'm assuming this is a variation they do but I'm curious what you think of using these ingredients in your adaptation.<BR/><BR/>Thanks in advance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17422713.post-44699715387709005332008-11-11T11:29:00.000-05:002008-11-11T11:29:00.000-05:00what a terrific idea to do half roasted/half fresh...what a terrific idea to do half roasted/half fresh.
