Today day is November 18 Vichyssoise Day observed every year, cold soup that is loved by many peoples. Louis Diat was the chef at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in New York City for most of the first half of the 20th century.
French chef Jules Gouffé published a similar recipe with potatoes, leeks, chicken stock and cream, in Royal Cookery, in 1869, but did not serve it cold.
In the 1992 movie Batman Returns, Bruce Wayne is surprised at its temperature, saying “It’s cold!” to which his butler, Alfred responds that “It’s supposed to be cold.”
