Product information
Leeks - Carentan
Leek has a mild onion-like taste, although less bitter than scallion. The taste might be described as a mix of mild onion and cucumber. It has a fresh smell similar to scallion. In its raw state, the vegetable is crunchy and firm. Leek is typically chopped into slices 5-10mm thick. The slices have a tendency to fall apart, due to the layered structure of the leek. There are different ways of preparing the vegetable. Boiled, which turns it soft and mild in taste, fried, which leaves it crunchier and preserves the taste or raw, which can be used in salads, doing especially well when they are the prime ingredient. The bid amount is for 1 Seed

The edible portions of the leek are the white onion base and light green stalk. The onion-like layers form around a core. The tender core may be eaten; but, as the leek ages, the core becomes woody and very chewy and better replanted than eaten.
