Evette Beitbadal Lol! Aw thanks Evette :) You're too kind. But I have to say TH-cam is such an amazing community because it's global, and interactive! I wouldn't be able to talk back from a TV Show :( I would feel so isolated without you guys! LOL! Mwah xx
It's 85 degrees here today but I just had to try this recipe! I have never eaten or cooked with leeks before so I didn't know what to expect. I have to say this recipe is outrageously delicious! It's going into my regular rotation!
I wish I had discovered your channel earlier! This is a recipe I can handle & it looks delicious & comforting. I also love that you are preparing food in the garden, as well as the kitchen! 😊🌿🌺
Beth, i´m a lover of vegetable soups. Many times i make them for my dinners. And leeks and onions are my basic ingredients for a really good soup. Also, when i make a big pot of zucchini or butternut squash soup for the entire family i make croutons because my kids love them! Delicious recipe Beth! Patricia.
I love your gardening channel Beth! I've been with you for years since before I became a vegetarian/wannabe vegan and while I still watch all of your videos I do get a bit sad that I won't truly indulge in your recipes. And I love your garden. So this vegan recipe that looks amazing (I love rosemary!) and your "how to grow" and gardening vlogs take the cake (so to speak ;)
I just made this recipe and it was absolutely delicious! If you're looking through the comments trying to decide whether to make it, DO IT! Also, I used the rest of the leeks to make homemade stock right before making the soup, so nothing was wasted :).
Beth, this series is AMAZING! Love it, and love this soup. My husband loves rosemary so much, and once we have a yard I'll definitely be growing some rosemary!
hi Beth!! In Malaysia we MalaysianChinese eat the whole leek, not just the white part. Its actually very good as a stirfry with oysterscauce and shrimps! Give it a go! :)
I use literally the whole leek every time I make anything that has to do with leeks. For instance, I would have chopped up the tops here too, but because they cook a little longer I would have thrown them in first before starting the rest. It kills me when the leaves of so many plants aren't used because their flavors are incredible! Really!
Hello Beth, loved your recipe! I live in France and when I do leek velouté, I use more of the white part! The strong green leaves I throw but I use more of the pale green part :) just thought I'd let you know
Thanks for sharing :D Can't wait to try your simple recipe. I like to make fresh chicken soup so this will be something different. My other fav's to make are carrot soup and borscht.
+zincink Oh yum those sound great :) I also at time will throw in some pulled rotisserie chicken into this soup after it's blended and that makes a hearty meal too! :) Enjoy!
Hi Beth, just wondering if there was a reason you only used the white part of the leeks? I know my mom always cooks the entire leek and its delicious, so I was just wondering if there was a reason to why you only used the white parts. Thanks!! :)
Beth...love your recipies...please don't waste the leek to the compost pile except last two inches of a stack. All is perfectly ok for other soups like cauliflower, broccoli or vegetable soups, or any root vegetable dishes. It 's easy to freeze for future use, just wash, thinly slice, sliced put in small plastic bag and freeze. I grow leek in my garden, and freeze all unused as described for use all winter long until I can grow again in Spring. Then I just take enough out as needed fir recipe. In your climate, you probably can grow year around. Let me know if interested in growing tips...very easy.
I'm just a starter at cooking, so i have 2 questions to ask: Can I pour the soup into a blender and puree it? Is there a substitute to leek?? P.S. I love your new channel
Cynthia Loh Oh sure! You can definitely put this in a normal blender and if you didn't have leeks on hand I would use either celery or shallots, or both! About 1/2 cup of one or the other or 1/4 cup of each :) Keep cooking! (Beginner cooks are my favorite type of cook :) xx)
BelovedEssence Oh yes! I have a great sweet pea soup recipe for you it's in my Easter Lunch Video Menu I did for Kin Community (It's in my Kin Menu Playlist on my Channels Homepage) for some reason it won't let me paste the URL? But it's so easy to make and so delicious! Enjoy!
Green parts of the leeks for stock or for the compost heap?!?!?!?! There is so much nutrition and flavor in the leek leafs. You can incorporate them into any dish, like a mild onion.
Your channel is honestly better than food network cooking channels. How awesome would it be if you got your own show?

Aww thanks Joanne! Yes its definitely been a fun new project! And yes if your husband loves rosemary he will love this one ! :)
Lovely, Beth! Rosemary is my absolute favorite herb! Thank you for sharing your recipes!
Julia Hernandez me too! It's so earthy and rustic! Just love having it in my garden :)
Wow! Thick, creamy, hearty soup! Will definitely try it!
You mentioned composting in this video. Do you have a compost section in your garden? Would LOVE a video on that!
Super like the way you topped it up with olive oil and garlic croutons :) simple to make and packed with rosemary flavour :)
Gorgeous garden setting I'm really enjoying your videos & love your recipes, greetings from Australia 🐨
This looks incredible!! Thank you for making it! Will definitely try it this month!
I made this and it was so easy. I loved it.

summerbayy Oh really!? Fascinating! I'll have to try that! :)

Never mind Beth I'm subscribed. Awesome channel.
I love how you cook outside, Beth! :) It really brings a summer-y and happy feeling :) Keep up the good work!
Just made this and it was so good! (and easy!) Thanks, Beth! Please keep the recipes coming :)
I loooooove your videos!
Beth! Can you please do a video on how to grow a mini fresh spice garden? I really want to get away from the dried spices. It will make a great video!
ohhh I can't wait to try this soup!!! thanks for sharing!
Hello Beth, loved your recipe!
I live in France and when I do leek velouté, I use more of the white part! The strong green leaves I throw but I use more of the pale green part :) just thought I'd let you know
Would love to have that with slightly crispy fried garlic slices in butter for garnish over the soup :)
In Beth's Garden I love that pepper mill & ceramic bowls!! Where'd you get them??
Looks delicious!! :)
Yum yum~

Just found your channel and I love it!!😊
can you show us how u make your compost and how often you use it?
Hi Beth, just wondering if there was a reason you only used the white part of the leeks? I know my mom always cooks the entire leek and its delicious, so I was just wondering if there was a reason to why you only used the white parts. Thanks!! :)
how did you get that vegetable broth?? I like the color it gives to the soup.

Or also place a dish towel on top of the blender while you blend that will also help :)
Thanks so much for all your help!! :)
Whenever I put potato soup in a blender, the consistency gets gummy instead of creamy. Is there a trick to preventing that?
Michele T I'm not sure about this, but you could rinse your potatoes before adding them to the pot so part of the starch washes off from it
Can you make pea soup, please? I am trying to find an amazing recipe. Love you videos.
BelovedEssence Oh yes! I have a great sweet pea soup recipe for you it's in my Easter Lunch Video Menu I did for Kin Community (It's in my Kin Menu Playlist on my Channels Homepage) for some reason it won't let me paste the URL? But it's so easy to make and so delicious! Enjoy!
Hi, why do you use only the white part from the leeks?
How do you think using roasted potatoes in a soup would work out?
Beth, if you're "nuts" over potato skins, then I'm just as nuts as you. Great recipe.
Thaneii ha! Right? They are the best and full of nutrients! :)
Why not use the light green parts? I've never seen someone use just the white part.
Do the potatoes have to be red?
Green parts of the leeks for stock or for the compost heap?!?!?!?!
There is so much nutrition and flavor in the leek leafs. You can incorporate them into any dish, like a mild onion.
How dare you eat me! 😂
btw is that a le cruset? omg *hearteyes!
won't her leeks still be all sandy since she didn't wash them?
البيض المقلي
leeks are onion right?
