LEEKS (Part 1?)

So, I tried out leeks. They're some cool . . . things. They taste like onions without the bite. I fried them. They were REALLY good. I can't wait to explore these cool little guys a lot more.

One thing I've learned is that leeks are dirty vegetables. Not only dot you have to rinse them off, but there is is still more dirt and sand in between the layers. The way most people clean leeks is by separating the layers and swishing them around in water so all of the dirt and sand can fall to the bottom while the leaks float on top.

As I was frying these little guys, I was snacking on the other little guys that didn't make it into the pan. Like I said, they are like onions without the bite. They are related after all (also in the family is scallions and garlic). So once I start making videos, I may go over leeks a bit so the viewers who still refuse the good ol' onion may have a good way to transition into liking those wonderful guys with the help of our good friend the leek.
