Pick of the Week - Leeks
My pick this week are leeks. Part of the onion and garlic family, they are grown in Victoria and to a lesser extent the Sydney basin. Great in casseroles and soups, or as a standalone veg - I love them in white sauce! High in vitamin C and fibre, they are a really healthy veg and they are at their best now. By September, they start to go to seed, so enjoy them now; they are well priced and at their absolute best!
HOW TO PICK
Choose leeks with dark green leaves on top and a bright white bulb and base.
HOW TO STORE
Trim the tops and store in a sealed plastic bag in the drawer of your refrigerator for up to one week.
