Spring is in the air and so are the leeks. This vegetable is a relative of the onion. Rich in antioxidants this can be cooked alone or paired with other vegetables.
Leeks is a multi season food. Starting in spring, it can last well into autumn. The common "partner in crime" for the leek is potatoes. Add leeks to your home made stock for an additional mild onion flavor.
For a new idea, the Foodnetwork.com has a recipe for Sugar Snap Peas with Leeks and Pancetta. Now you know bacon makes everything taste better!
