How to cut a leek

Posted by Chef Jenny Brewer in Recipes

To clean and cut a leek, first, cut off the top parts (save this for stock if desired). Next, leaving the bottom of the leek intact, cut the leek in half and slice. Turn it over and slice again so you have quarter sections.

Then slice the leek into small pieces. Put leek pieces in a colander and wash really well (leeks are really sandy!) The leeks are ready to use!
