Garlic Leek Soup
Yesterday I was craving some comfort food. Plus I had a sick person in the house, so I thought about this soup I ate in Austria
When we were in the Wachau at the Danube, we stopped at a Restaurant for lunch. We had a large breakfast at our B&B, and I just wanted something small. Once back home, I tinkered around and recreated it in my kitchen
I ate the creamiest soup, plus it was delicious.
