Original here.

This time, I added about half a cup of leeks, and I used homemade beef stock instead of duck. I feel that beef gave an inferior soup, at least compared to duck. I think that probably duck stock is the ideal, and vegetable stock is probably an acceptable substitute. The beef has a bit too much presence--it distracts from the spicing, the creaminess, and the spiciness of the chorizo. Chicken would probably work for those of you who can eat chicken.

I also used coffee cream instead of whipping cream, because that was what I had, and it worked just fine.

All else was the same.

It turned out beautifully, though. I'm excited to see how it develops after a night in the fridge.

Next time: definitely duck stock again. There was no comparison. I think it needs a touch of fresh rosemary, as well. Any kind of cream seems to work as well as any other kind.
