WHAT ARE LEEKS?

When I first started really cooking, I didn’t really know what a leek was. I tended to steer clear of recipes that involved leeks. But, what I realized is that the recipes that utilized leeks were actually bursting with flavor. Leeks add a sweet onion flavor like green onions only on steroids. Their mild flavor and ease of preparation make the vegetable a great addition to soups, casseroles, and white meat entrees. 

Leeks are members of the Allium family. They are bulbous vegetables with white flesh and leafy green tops. The bulb is not round just larger than normal. You will find that leeks are one of the more expensive onion varieties that you can find at the store. They are very desirable due to their mild flavor. 

Needless to say, you will find that leeks add a delectable flavor to your dishes and this carrot Bisque Soup Recipe is sure to be better because you use them.
