A member of the allium amily, leeks are a large vegetable. When cooked, they have a mild sweet flavour that is similar to onions. When they are raw, the flavour is not as desirable. When using leeks, make sure to wash them properly to ensure that all the dirt has been cleaned from the layers or leaves. They are in season from September to March.
