easy summer cooking: leeks
There have been amazing leeks in the Sundog Farm share. Sweeter and milder than scallions and onions, leeks provide a rich counterpoint to other vegetables. Yet, their distinctive flavour allow them to solo as well —they shine in soups, gratins or sti -frys. Leeks are usually cut across the grain resulting in bright green spiraled coins—very attractive. Cut off the dark green bits and save for your stock pot. Their only downside is that they are a bit fiddly, hiding sand in between every layer—you need to wash well.
