This might just be the perfect soup for a snowy winter's day. Eat with a handful of vegetable chips and you won't want anything else. <br />It's a no-fuss recipe we originally developed when my older son began chewing on vanilla beans. I realized we needed a way to sate his passion for vanilla without panna cotta, ice cream, or cookies. <br />If you want to let your kids get in on the action: little ones can scrub the parsnips, wash out the leeks, and put everything in the pot. We cool the soup before blending, then my boys put the soup in our food processor and whizz the ingredients all together. I don't trust them, however, to salt "to taste".
