Leek Advice

If you are like me you will eat a lot of the green as well. It annoys me when I see television chefs chuck the green section away!

The green part has a stronger flavour and is more 'leeky'

yes Vinny I agree with you on that, yet there was a bit onTV this morning just as I was going out, chef James Martin showed a good sized leek grown in his garden and he indicated that you just cut off the top couple of inches or so, then in a magazine there was bit by Monty Don which showed a picture of some leeks just harvested and most of the green leaf had been trimmed off, personally I think the supermarkets are a lot to blame as they like to display neatly packed, trimmed leeks
