INSTRUCTIONS

In a large saucepan cook the leek, the celery, and the carrot with the bay
leaf and the thyme in the butter over moderate heat, stirring, for 5
minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the potatoes, peeled and
sliced thin, and the broth and simmer the mixture, covered, for 15 minutes,

blender puree the soup in batches. Transfer the puree to the cleaned pan
and stir in the half-and-half. Heat the soup over low heat, whisk in the
Stilton, whisking until the cheese is melted and the soup is smooth, and
whisk in the Port and salt and pepper to taste. (Do not let the soup boil.)
Serve the soup garnished with the chives.
