Recipe: Leeks, Brie and aromatic herbs soup
Soups with aromatic herbs
October 16, 2013
 For this soup I used my homemade mediterranean aromatic mixture, similar to italian seasoning, with rosemary, sage, marjoram, thyme, oregano, mint and several other herbs.
I also added some fresh chives and a touch of allspice.
