Steps:
- In a blender purée the beans in batches with the tarragon and the broth and strain the purée through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the solids. In a large saucepan cook the leek, the garlic, and the red pepper flakes in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the leek is softened and begins to turn golden. Add the purée, the half-and-half, the lemon juice, and salt to taste and simmer the soup, stirring, for 5 minutes.

[email protected]Not bad, not bad at all. The soup was creamy and flavorful, but I found it to be a bit too heavy for my taste. I think it would be better with a lighter broth or maybe some added vegetables to lighten it up a bit.
