Cooking Ingredients for Mousse De Poireaux Recipe

3 lb Whole; young leeks
6 tb Butter
Salt & freshly ground pepper
1 c Heavy cream

Mousse De Poireaux Preparation

Remove most of the green stalks from the leeks, leaving only a hint of green near the white portion, if it is tender. Cut lengthwise into fourths and wash very well, removing any grit that may be trapped between the rings. Dry well with paper towels. Chop to a medium dice. Over medium heat, melt 4 tbs. of butter in a skillet. When butter has completely melted & the foam begins to subside, add the chopped leek. Cook 30 minutes or until soft but not browned, stirring frequently. Add salt & pepper to taste. Transfer leeks to a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process 4 minutes. With motor running, add cream through the feed tube & process 1 more minute. Heat remaining 2 tbs. butter in small pan & after it melts & lightly browns, pour into processor. Mix well. Adjust salt & pepper. Keep warm until serving. PETIT CAFE N.E. 55TH STREET, SEATTLE. SERVE WITH POULET A LA MOUTARDE. From the <Micro Cookbook Collection of French Recipes>.
