Ingredients
- 1 leek
Instructions
- Wash the outside of the leeks to remove any dirt. Cut off the dark green leaves. Cut at an angle to retain as much of the light green part of the leek as possible.
- Cut the leek in half lengthwise, keeping the root intact.
- Cleaning the leeks can be done one of two ways. You can either rinse the leek under running water, separating the folds to remove any dirt (as shown in the post above), or the leek can be soaked in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
- The leeks may be used in this form, particularly if you wish to braise them. Alternatively, they can be sliced crosswise or julienned for use in dishes such as quiche or soup.
