Leek - Herfstreuzen 3

Allium porrum

A wonderful leek variety with strong vigor that produces white, sturdy, robust stems with green foliage. This flavorful variety is suitable for autumn and winter harvest and also adapts well to colder growing zones. Leeks contain the B-vitamin folate and minerals such as potassium and calcium that are beneficial for the body. Including leeks in your diet can help with nutrient synthesis, digestion, and promote a restful and refreshing sleep.

This variety is perfect for making leek gratin or creamed leeks. Two other delicious options are baking it in the oven with goat cheese and hazelnuts or making a tasty leek and potato soup.
