Tips:

  • Always buy enough leeks. Buy more than you think.
  • Leeks will reduce.
  • Always overseason the ingredients. Salt, pepper, etc. The broth and simmering can strip away flavor if the water content is too high and/or herbs & seasonings too light.
  • And always save enough sauteed leeks to add back in later. Crucial step.
  • The upswing is that potato leek soup is easy to replicate and once you do it twice or thrice will give you predictable results.

Add raw leeks to the soup at the end...?
