| Do the leeks go in whole, or diced / anything? |
| Sliced crossways, wash the leek real well, cut the root off, then cut almost to the top. hope this helps? you can chop them if you wish.
When the potatoes are cooked you can squish a few w/ a potato masher it thickens the soup. enjoy! sue |
Potato leek soup is YUMMY. Only BE SURE you wqash the leeks well. I didn't know that leeks are kinda sandy if not REALLY REALLY REALLY rinsed well. Made for crunchey soup  |
| Explain Ginny the crunch is grit (dirt) that gets inbetween the leek layers. Yep, you have to slice them long wise and rinse very well.
I love leeks! BTW, I make the squash/kale risotto recipe I gave Darcy. Makes a ton! But very good. Hope it is good as left overs as we'll be eating on it awhile. |

| Guess I should have been more specific about washing the leek (sorry).
I have been making it so long it is just automatic for me. Hope you will try it again w/o the grir  |
| It's ok, I need more fiber in my diet!!! I never used a Leek before, I thought you just washed them like grren onions before you cut them. HAHAHAHAHA! |
| Joan is fond of telling me that her grandmother used to say:
Quote: You eat a peck of dirt before you die. To which I smile and always reply: Quote: Yes, but what she didn't tell you is: "Once you eat that peck of dirt, then you die." |
| I bought another leek today, I'll try AGAIN!!!! |
