Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 cups cleaned and chopped leeks, white and light green parts only
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 quart chicken broth
  • 1 (13 3/4-ounce) can artichoke hearts, rinsed, drained, and quartered
  • 2 1/2 cups peeled and cubed baking potatoes
  • 2 small thyme sprigs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 3/4 teaspoon Original TABASCO® brand Pepper Sauce
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Melt butter in a medium saucepan; add onion and leeks and cook, covered, about 10 minutes, or until tender. Uncover and cook until leeks are very soft, about 5 minutes, adding garlic at last minute.

Add broth, artichokes, potatoes and thyme and simmer 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add milk and TABASCO® Sauce and simmer 5 minutes longer. Remove from heat and discard thyme.

In a food processor or blender, purée soup until very smooth. Serve hot or cold, garnished with parsley.

Makes 8 to 10 servings.
