Directions
-
Clean the leeks thoroughly, slicing the white parts, and dice the celery and peeled potatoes.
-
In a large 4-quart soup pot over medium heat, sauté the sliced leeks, diced celery, and cubed potatoes in a little water for 5 to 7 minutes, adding more water as needed to prevent sticking.
-
Pour in 6 cups of water along with the salt, pepper, and veggie bouillon.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are very soft and tender, about 15 minutes.
-
Stir in the cooked brown rice and heat through for another minute.
-
Carefully puree the soup in batches (2 to 3 cups at a time) in a blender or food processor until completely smooth and velvety.
-
Return the blended soup to the pot and rewarm gently over low heat.
-
Stir in the splash of wine vinegar if using, taste, and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed before serving.
