Like shallots and garlic, leeks are a member of the allium family. Like its cousins, leeks have a fragrant, deeply savory flavor. However unlike most other alliums such as garlic and chives, leeks have a much more delicate, slightly floral flavor, slightly reminiscent of a more mild onion. The cooking process only intensifies this delicious flavor. Indeed, leeks aren’t usually consumed raw, but almost always roasted and braised to bring out their delicious, deeply savory flavors. High-fat ingredients such as cheese and red meat compliment the leek’s flavor profile especially beautifully, although you’ll find tons of delicious vegetarian and vegan recipes with leeks on the site as well.
