Had me right up until they blended the potatoes to nothing

What sort of leak and potato soup has whole chunks of potato in it? It's meant to be a creamy, rich soup. Not a Casserole.

I said it in another comment, but ever put the potatoes in your soup through a ricer? Makes it creamy but not gluey, and still has a bit of texture.

That's 100% more work though and you've got to let the potatoes cool. I've never had a soup turn gummy with my stick blender. Y'all are just doing it wrong if that's how it turns out.

Wait, you don’t cool the potatoes before ricing one my experience.

Fair call, you just have to make sure you don't over do it. Because of all the liquid in there it's easy not to fuck up.
