"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

* To clean leeks which can contain a lot of grit, put sliced leeks in a large bowl of cold water, swish vigorously with your hands, and remove with slotted spoon. All the grit will remain at the bottom of the bowl.
