    I was just talking to my parents yesterday how a 10lb bag of potatoes was cheaper than a 3lb bag, and how I haven’t made potato soup in a while. Then Chef comes along and drops this video! Life is wonderful friends, never forget that.

    Your timing is impeccable, dear Chef Jean-Pierre! August 12 is the birthday anniversary of Antoine-Augustin Parmentier, who promoted the potato as good, wholesome food for humans. Potatoes, as you know, were considered food for pigs, or even worse, as poisonous. Parmentier turned all that around, and this soup, in a little more primitive form (using water instead of stock) was originally called "Potage Parmentier".

    • @JL-yo1du
      @JL-yo1du 6 місяців тому

      Look at the Tomato, leaves bake you sick but not the fruit, Cherry and Peach pits are toxic but not the fruits but coffee beans are the pit but developed caffeine to kill insects. Worth is always in balance with the worthless waiting to be revealed. Rice Bran Oil is the perfect oil for most cooking, a former waste product as was was cottage cheese, curds and whey, whey is processed for protein powder. The list is moderately long.

    Love this soup. My mom was a big James Beard fan in the 70's (I now know how fortunate I was) so we had Vichyssoise often. We'd eat it hot and unblended (chunky) at night for dinner and then cold and blended (smooth) the next day for lunch. I make it for my family. It's important to start or continue traditions like these. I think of my mom (RIP) when I make her dishes and I hope my kids think of me when they make mine (or hers through me).

When enjoying it cold I also like to add Louisiana hot sauce. This is the dish that led me to truly understand what you mean when you talk about the pleasure of leaving it on your tongue to appreciate the flavor and texture before swallowing it.

    Reminds me of the first time I had Vichyssoise at a French restaurant in Stamford, CT 20+ years ago. Yes, Chef, my tongue still remembers the flavor and texture of that Amaaaaazing soup! I knew it was typically served chilled, but I got the sense the server thought of me as another brutish American diner, so I decided to play the role. When he presented the check, I offered my critique that the soup was delicious but the chef apparently forgot to heat it up because it was very cold! With raised eyebrows and pursed lips, I could tell he was silently saying, "idiot!" -- until after a few seconds he got my joke and we both laughed. We played out that scene every time I went back to that restaurant for their Vichyssoise.

    Hi Chef. I made the soup today (let it cool for about 1 1/2 hrs). Couldn't wait 24 hours. My wife and I enjoyed it very much. It was great. Your video and instructions were right on. At first, when I was adding the chicken stock, it only took only 4 cups to "just cover" the veggies. However, after doing the immersion blend I found that the soup was way too thick, so I ended up adding the rest of the stock to get a much better consistency, as you stated. The green oil was fun putting on the soup and making the hearts design. We ended up adding a bunch of lines of green oil on the soup because it tasted so good, along with the dollop sour cream. I did add some fried bacon bits and some smoked kielbasa chucks to the soup to get something to chew on. I liked the idea someone on this thread suggested to save some of the potatoes and cube them and add them to the finished product. Anyway, thanks again for the great recipe. We'll be eating the rest of the soup for dinner tomorrow.

    What happened to the chives? 60 years ago I was brought up on this cold soup. Always had fresh chives from our garden. This recipe is a masterpiece. Michelin Star.

    Caldo Verde is still my favorite potato based soup, but this one I will make and I will do it exactly like Chef Jean-Pierre did. All the dishes I copied from this amazing Chef came out so good, I thought I could actually cook for real rofl. Thank you once again Chef.

    Thanks! nothing new here, I've been doing this so many times already, and it's so easy to get perfect. One of the best recipes. Only not always we have good leeks around, and you gotta have good leeks for this soup.
    One more thing - we add some finely ground white-pepper-corns (the peeled peppercorns) which adds just the tiniest "sting" to your byte of cold refreshing comforting soup. Dunno if that's "a custom" anywhere, but that's how I do it.
    Great, I'll make this soup tomorrow noon.

    In Finland this is one of the most common soups we eat, always served hot 😋
    Maybe because we have super cold, dark and so looooong winters 😂🤣😂
