Preparation
- Step 1
Put potatoes and leeks in a food processor. Process until coarsely chopped. Scrape into a 2½-quart souffle dish with a tightly fitting lid. Stir in 1½ cups broth. Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 16 minutes, stirring once.
- Step 2
Remove from oven and uncover. Stir in ricotta, buttermilk and salt. Working in batches, puree the mixture in a blender until smooth. (A food processor will not give soup a creamy texture.)
- Step 3
If serving cold, scrape soup into a bowl and refrigerate until well chilled. If serving hot, scrape mixture back into souffle dish. Cook, covered, 2 minutes. Serve with chives sprinkled on top.
