Easy to prepare and quite flavorful. I am not particulary practiced at preparing leeks although we enjoy the flavor. Cut lengthwise and served same made for an uncomfortable mouthful, but this could be my inexperience. Shall happily prepare again, yet next time must cut leeks in another way. Thanks for posting.
