Thankful for what appeared at the back door this week, surplus from the recent 'lifting'. Have you any favorite ways to use leeks? We are planning on a pot of potato soup but that will not use them all.
The carrots are eaten like candy by the children so I doubt they will ever see the inside of a stock pot. : )
“Eat leeks in March and wild garlic in May
And all year after physicians may play.”
– Welsh Proverb


Happy Thanksgiving! For the leeks, our favorite is in soup, but we also like them in quiche and Colcannon:

Well ~ ya just wear themin your hat, if all else fails… :0). Last St David’s Day we made a really good leek soup. And they’re nice and mild added to stir fry. How wonderful that you are having a fall harvest!
We like them oven-roasted with butter, salt and pepper.
Miso soup! And, I second the stir-fry idea. :o)
