I've got the Stoneware Inspirations cookbook and was wondering if anyone has made the Harvest Cream Soup?

Considering making it this holiday season for the family..
 
I have not made that. Just try it and let us know how it turns out.
 
What do leeks taste like? Is there something else that can be substituted for them. Otherwise the soup sounds good.

I always substitute scallions
 
I've never had fresh leeks, but I love them in dry vegetable soup mix.
 
Leeks have the most wonderful flavor when cooked. Hmm, I'm going to have to dig out that cookbook and make a batch for DH this weekend. Yum!
 
oh yes, leeks are very very good.
