Instructions

1. Clean the leeks, remove the tough green part and drop them into boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain them and throw away that first water, which is bitter.
2. Put them in a pot with the fresh water and the prunes and simmer until very tender, about 30 minutes.
3. Take out the leeks, slice them and return them to the broth. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Serve it in soup bowls with the strips of toast, like a bread soup.
