    Delicious Vichyssoise (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    Vichyssoise is one of the Grand Dames of chilled cuisine, and one of the tastiest, most satisfying of all cold soups. This version marries puréed leeks, onions, potatoes, cream, and chicken stock  to create a thick, delicious soup that is certain to please.

    The finished vichyssoise. Photo: CC-stu_spivakIngredients:
    3 leeks sliced thin
    3 cups chicken broth
    1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
    1 large onion, sliced
    1 cup potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
    1 tablespoon butter
    1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    1 bay leaf

    Directions:
    Melt butter in a large stock pot over low heat.

    Add leeks and onion, cover, and gently sweat until soft, about 8-10 minutes. Do NOT let them brown.

    When leeks and onions are soft, add potatoes, salt, pepper, thyme, marjoram, bay leaf and stir well.

    Cover and simmer for more 10 minutes.

    Add chicken stock and bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer gently for 30 minutes.

    Pureé soup in blender or food processor and chill.

    When soup is cool and ready to serve, blend in the chilled whipping cream.

    Serve cold in chilled bowls.

    This is one of the best French fry spin-offs I’ve found thanks to the incredible za’atar spice blend. It’s a Middle Eastern staple consisting of sesame seeds, thyme, oregano, marjoram, sage and sometimes mint. You can find it at specialty food stores or sift together your own batch; it’s also great on meats and vegetables. Sweet rice flour is the best way to go. It gives a better crunch than a heavy breading and no clumping.
    Ingredients:
    1 1-pound eggplant
    1 cup sweet rice flour
    Juice from 1 lemon plus 1 tablespoon zest
    2 tablespoons za’atar seasoning
    1 tablespoon garlic powder
    ¼ cup sour cream
    2 tablespoons heavy cream
    1 tablespoon gluten-free hot chili sauce
    Vegetable oil for frying
    Salt and pepper to taste

    Directions
    For the crema dipping sa...
