Every once in a while, my dumb ideas sound good. . .

So, last night, I was thinking -- I could make a fish chowder, but instead of having a cream base with chunks of potato, I could increase the amount of potatoes, and blend them into a smooth potato base with some cream. And, of course, if you're doing that, leeks would go in, 'cause leeks and potatoes go really well together in blended soups.

So, a fish chowder with a blended potato-leek base. It actually sounds good.

Then, maybe, you could serve it cold. I'd eat it.

But the only reason I came UP with this idea was for the name. Fichyssoise.
