Young Leek Spring Rolls Recipe
Flavors of the Loire Valley
Total time: 15 to 30 minutes
Prep. time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Chef's Note
Green or white? Both, of course! With young spring leeks, everything is edible. Their long green leaves and bright white stems are tender and delicious and cook in a matter of minutes. The white part contains more soluble fiber and has marked diuretic properties. The cellulose found in the green sections helps stimulate sluggish intestinal function.
