How To Easily Cook Leeks

[@petrofski88]

One note, we do need the normal kitchen salt (not refined, just the normal thick one) because it has added Iodine which is very important for us, specially children. I also love those other salts for their variety (namely the rock salts from himalayas) but as far as I know they do not contain the required amount of Iodine :) stay healthy! Cheers!

[@kiranpatel6521]

Boring hell! Table salt is fine especially to gargle and rinse your mouth is you have teeth or gym issues! Yes, I have sea salt, pink Himalayan and the loads

[@swiftelky6852]

Thank you for such and easy recipe, straight to the point looks wonderful can’t wait to try tonight ❤

[@the7thwreck]

I love leeks because our Anglo ancestors ate them with their meat. It provides taste, texture and ruffage. Balanced. I’ve got a juicy nutritious steak waiting to be eaten with leeks. I can’t wait! Fat only becomes a problem if you eat too many carbs such as grains, bread and pasta. Also sugar in fruit is something to take note of. The body uses the quickest energy first. So mixing sugars/carbs with fat? Will get you fat. Live a healthy life by eating the most nutrient dense whole foods and staying away from a lot of sugar filled fruit and carbs. Learn from your ancestors.

[@ScoffTV]

Thanks for pointin that out nunyabizness1000. We must have missed that bit out in the edit but we'll make a note for any new videos we do with vegetables and salads.

[@ml_g]

Poor Walter, he's being cooked alive.... lol....

[@umbral-ash]

Nice recipe. But since I live in Vermont and have a filter I can use QUALITY MOUNTAIN TAP WATER MWAHAHAHA

[@monetemert4916]

God all the leek videos I have watched have the meanest comments. I had no idea leek trolls were thing??? Wtf

[@RTD553]

People who eat and prepare leeks are bastards - that's why :)

[@rdu239]

People who throw away the leaves are bastards, those leaves are edible if you stir fry it long enough

[@TheA1carpetman]

Cheers for the heads up. Her indoors is full of surprises

[@christopherabm]

Seems as everyone that comments is such a leek expert yet they are watching how to videos...thanks for posting

[@Kr0oky]

that's because leeks tend to have dirt between the separate leaves all down to the stock caused by how it grows. I came to video looking for a way to clean them and cook them the way she has, but I don't see how she could have adequately gotten the dirt out of the leek. So following this makes me cautious about what I'm feeding to those I'm cooking for.

[@blue2335]

@@Kr0oky she grew them hydroponically.

[@Kr0oky]

@McDonalds Farmer Cleaning and prepping is a part of cooking, otherwise Julia Childs wouldn't have bothered explaining how to wash and chop her fruit and veggies. How about NOT trying to argue every little thing as long you're going to half ass your argument. Stupid fucking people like you who half ass your duties is why we're in the state we're in you lazy piece of shit.

[@jasonsensation46]

🤣🤣🤣

[@gratsielaivanova5718]

what's with all of the leek hate wow, well done lady for making a video for others to enjoy!

[@viviae.armstrong3213]

Thank you. So if you put them right in the pan after cutting. When and how did you clean them?

[@ThePoehladian]

@McDonalds Farmer 😂👍🍃

[@Theaguni]

Go check 0.26 where said, "give them a bit of a rinse"

[@feyrie]

you commenters need to get your ears cleaned out. She specifically said in the beginning, "give it a bit of a rinse"...obviously the leeks she has, had already been cleaned.

[@tomnatwil]

You need to open them up to clean the grit out of them. Rinsing is not going to do it. Those leeks were too tight to have been cleaned

[@feyrie]

T Williams true

[@ryanhyndman5732]

When you say ‘alkalised water, basically means any water above 6 on the ph scale (most bottled water)

[@msshelbyful]

Plus micro plastics and all the health issues that has

[@ParisHoward]

Above 7*

[@ParisHoward]

Most bottled water is within the 6-7ph range. Anything below 7 is in fact acidic and not alkaline. Lots of bottled water is acidic after pH testing

[@josephpalermo3385]

How do you wash the leeks , if you cross cut them ??

[@jenairegreen8360]

I always saw this vegetable in the grocery store but I never had it I wonder if you can add garlic

[@motorhead1995able]

Most himalian salt that is sold is actually salt for sausages which is coloured pink to differentiate it from regular salt. It has some chemicals essential for sausages but not good for regular every day use. It is much cheaper than authentic himalian salt which is really expensive. So be aware

[@dinosore4782]

No

[@clip012]

That black blouse is saying: I wanna go clubbing!

[@camerontarot]

wow I love her

[@TheDurnans]

If only I liked sand would I eat them this way. I've never been able to clean a leek completely of sand without splitting it open and rinsing the inside very well.

[@mrjules2008]

shit I feel such a tramp for using tap water and table salt

[@toothpastehombre]

Need to give these comments a quick rinse

[@rutanyaalda2222]

thank you

[@grabbingkitties7824]

Growing up never heard of a leak. And now I see them at the store and they are never sold. Where these things come from?

[@MrMcCawber]

You MUST have leaked at one time or another. 😆 Leeks, however, are a different matter (sorry - I know that was cheap, but I'm only human.) I adore leeks - and brussel sprouts, and cauliflower. You know - all those things that people 'hate'? When people "don't like leeks" (or sprouts or cauliflower) it's usually because they've never experienced such things other than with the taste thoroughly boiled out. "Boiled to buggery!" my late Grandma used to say. It was my Nan who taught me to appreciate such stuff (don't get me started on black pudding!) With both leeks and sprouts, she used to boil for just a couple of minutes, until just tender and no more. Served with butter and a pinch of salt and pepper. Any still left the day after were lightly fried in butter as a breakfast side dish. All done, I need to mention, on one of those old fireside oven ranges you raked the coals under. I've honestly seen people at my Nan's table asking "What was that? It was lovely! Leeks? But I don't LIKE leeks!" If you've never tried leeks, please do so at least once in your life. Potato and leek soup is my favourite winter supper, usually made in a slow cooker. If you genuinely don't care for them, it's a free country. But don't base your taste on other people's cooking. One warning. They're a 'dirty' vegetable you must ALWAYS wash, whatever anyone might tell you to tbe contrary. They do chop and freeze well. One last thing - a halfway decent leek is 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Some smaller ones can be tasty, but in general avoid them as plucked afore their time into this world. If you can find a genuine farmers market you can often find them 4 inches wide. And then there's the edible 'bolt' which I can only suggest you Google before this ramble turns into War and Peace.

[@rachelhudson4662]

I eat the dark leaves too. Just cut them finer.

[@ellisphaz4076]

Same here, plus lots more iron in the darker leaf

[@aleccap5946]

So leave the yellow centre in ?

[@nunyabizness1000]

looks great. you didnt clean them?

[@MrLees-oq8wb]

She's fun

[@peterbartek9777]

Kan i ave a cap of wa'ah?

[@wandaharold8935]

What about cleaning them

[@Theaguni]

0:26.

[@the7thwreck]

Can I use pure butter to fry with, use tap water and season with regular salt? Surely that would taste much better and be less processed. Butter rules over olive oil any day.

[@scottbrumley3694]

And I bet you could use actual cheese rather than "non-dairy" cheese. If it is dairy free it is not cheese. Call it another name. Kind of like butcher free meat is tofu.

[@the7thwreck]

Scott Brumley Exactly.

[@cattuccinofung8376]

aiya......didn't washed them

[@cr.d.9258]

She washed them. She doesnt have to show every little detail.

[@jenairegreen8360]

👍😀

[@Jrashadbanks]

Did she wash them or did I miss that

[@bradrodman3984]

I bought leaks and great music

[@Theaguni]

You leek trolls, do you need someone to tell you how to wash leeks? Video says how to cook leeks and not how to wash leeks. Gosh!!!!

[@ferdinandimposter691]

Dairy free cheese? Bollocks!

[@Phil-tl6ln]

who the fuck adds water and oil to the pan at the same time?

[@msshelbyful]

Concerned with health but yet uses plastic on hot surfaces and hot food.....

[@beveie123]

1:40 she held and shook the hot pan? Just why

[@carolinagossn6753]

Is that all ???

[@jamieriggensyahoo.com187ri8]

She didn't clean them!!!

[@superdavey69]

probably the worst way ive seen leaks cooked ever

[@pkantaros]

Yuck. She must like eating dirt, because she didn't wash the leeks.

[@the7thwreck]

Philip Kantaros That’s how vegetarians get their B12. From literal dirt. The diet in the soil on their veg is good. It’s seriously an actual ‘thing’ they believe.

[@chrislloyd5415]

Salt is salt and water is water. Stop spreading this superstitious nonsense.

[@davidmeehan4139]

That's no cook!

[@ebeninkininki]

lol this is how a white housewife cooks leeks. rename title please
