I have made Vichysoisse often as a soup served during an Australian summer. It is winter here now, so a potage would be perfect. I served it as a first course, then a Niçoise as the main and then a berry mousse for dessert. I had read the story of the New York Ritz a long time ago in an old French cookbook. These days I would probably bypass the cream, just for health reasons, but it does lift it to a very special occasion soup. It was not until I made this soup that I understood how wonderful it is to strain a cream soup. It makes the velvety mouth feel and lifts the soup to something really special. Even my kids demanded it for middle of the week creamy/blended soups I made to trick them into having vegetables my son didn't like. Lol, I had to edit, auto correct changed potage to postage!

Wonderful recipe and a culinary school classic dish. Some chefs will substitute chicken stock or vegetable stock for the water in an effort to boost the flavor. Traditionally, cold soups are served at 40 degrees F (4 C) in a chilled bowl and the seasoning must be adjusted to compensate for the colder temperature. All this means is seasoning is often a little more aggressive when the dish is served cold as our ability to discern flavors somewhat muted when compared to room temperature or even warmer foods. Finally, if making ahead of time and keeping chilled in the cooler till service, some cooks will add the heavy cream just before service to adjust the viscosity. The whipped cream quenelle with chives is a perfect garnish. Thanks for a wonderful dish!

Stephen, do you think the 40F / 4C serving temperature is more a legal liability issue of specifying the highest possible temperature on the low end of the "Danger Zone" of 40F - 140F / 4C - 60C, or is it really the optimum serving temperature for cold soups? My fear is that lawyers are saying essentially "You can't expect the average person to understand the time-temperature safety envelope, much less follow it, so you need to just specify a temperature that is always safe no matter how long the soup is held at that temperature." What has your experience been as far as serving temperature? 40F / 4C is WAY too cold, IMHO. I was thinking something similar to serving temperature for French white wines, like 50F / 10C. What do you think?

I can’t remember where I heard this (maybe Jacques Pépin told the story?), but supposedly the chef who first served vichyssoise in the United States at the Ritz was following his mother’s recipe. It just happened to be the way she made the soup when he was a kid. Apparently he was a great marketer, because he named it “vichyssoise” and everyone assumed it was a classic French soup!

That story was also told for King Frederick II. of Prussia, who was - just like Parmentier - an enabler of the cultivation of the potato in Europe. It turned out, that it was - in Frederick's case - only a legend and originated in the french history of Parmentier... simply adopted in Prussia.

Hi Stéphane, you were very insistent that there be no colouration on the leeks and onions before introducing the liquids, is this purely for the aesthetic of light coloured, creamy result? Colour is just caramelization, at least in the onion family, right? So the result would be sweeter, but not as aesthetically pleasing?

Does hot bread go with cold soup. What type of bread? Is it weird to turn baguette length wise onto its side to make biased cuts for table bread?

An addition to the Parmentier story..to help convince the wary Parisians to try them, he planted a small plot with potatoes, put a fence around it, and posted soldiers in the daytime. The soldiers left at night and people, thinking there must be something valuable there, stole them and discovered how safe and good to eat they are. Of course, this maybe apocryphal.

To be fair, the potato was looked down upon by virtually every European nation when it first arrived. It was food for pigs originally in Spain.

Stephane--I used to own a copy of the Alice B. Toklas Cookbook (the life partner of writer Gertrude Stein), which I can't seem to find any more (it's available on the secondary market). They lived in France for a number of years . In that cookbook, there was a recipe for quenelles, poached, which were, supposedly, served at baptisms. What do you know of this dish and do you have a recipe for them? I have seen you and other chefs create quenelle shapes of ice cream and whipped cream, but this recipe was supposed to be a side dish. Merci beaucoup, monsieur!

Quenelle is what is commonly know today as dumpling as in fish dumpling. but in fact you can make quenelle in dozen of ways. the base of the preparation if called the panade similar to the base of a choux pastry. once you have that you add all all sorts of thing from pureed vegetables, meat and fish so it is hard to tell what quenelle they are, unless you have the exact name of the recipe ( appellation of the dish). what was the name of that cook book?

I haven't seen it in any of my local second-hand bookstores, which is a bit surprising for the Redlands, CA area. I'll keep looking, though. Thank you for the quick response.
