LEEK AND CHESTNUT SOUP
I haven't tried this yet, but I plan to this week. It is from the Ciao Chow Linda blog at http://ciaochowlinda.blogspot.com. The original recipe didn't say how many servings this makes, so I guessed. It also called for heavy cream. I left this out, but feel free to add it during the reheating that occurs after the puree process.
