You must admit, Vichyssoise sounds better than leek and potato just like Aubergine sounds better than eggplant. Damn the French!

It was awesome.

The correct pronunciation is "vish-ee-schwoz", however, it has been Anglicized so much
to the pronunciation of "vish-ee-shwah" that only the snooty pronounce the "z" on the
end. It's been Anglicized to the point where the "z" is now the INcorrect version.
.
Much as how "on-DEEV" is NOW correctly pronounced "EN-dive".

There was a very funny commercial where the snooty woman on the phone in the
background can barely be heard telling the other party, "No... it's definitely pronounced
"on-DEEV".
.
A little bit of subtle genius.

Another misunderstanding is that it HAS to be served cold. Cold, it's a little earthy for
me... so I was glad to find that it can be served tepid, or even hot, it you wish.

Sour dough bread would work, too.

If anyone is into pressure cooking, we have an excellent recipe. The prep takes longer than the actual cooking.
