You’ve got to love a bowl of thick, sweet and aromatic vegetable soup. It’s therapeutic, filling and hearty. The leeks add a lovely depth of flavor. This recipe a great way to embrace the season’s fresh produce. Best eaten with toasted bread for dunking. —Diana

This says to add a grated tomato. Is this a typo that should be potato?
