Directions: |
Directions:Cut root ends off leeks and then cut the remaining dark green ends off to form 8" servings which will include some of the dark green part of the leek. Wash twice in salty water. After all the dirt is gone, plunge leeks into boiling, salted water and boil for 1 minute. Remove leeks from boiling water and plunge into icy water (cold water with lots of ice in it) in your sink. Put back into the boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and plunge again into icy water. Drain on a paper towel and let dry. Slice each leek in half and place in a shallow container. Pour vinagrette over. Cover and put in refrigerator for at least one hour or overnight. When ready to serve, put 4 halves on each plate and pour remaining sauce over each serving |

Notes: Great salad to prepare ahead of time. Interesting, different and very good. Make sure the leeks are completely cooked before marinating them in the refrigerator
