WHFoods Recommendations With their unique combination of flavonoids and sulfur-containing nutrients, the allium vegetables belong in your diet on a regular basis. There's research evidence for including at least one serving of an allium vegetable in your meal plan every day. If you're choosing leeks, make your individual portion 1/2 cup or greater, and try to include at least one cup of chopped leeks in your recipes. Many people are unfamiliar with how to cook leeks or how to include them into a Healthiest Way of Eating. We recommend cutting them very thinly and preparing them by using our Healthy Sauté method of cooking. Like their allium cousins, onions and garlic, let leeks sit for at least 5 minutes after cutting and before cooking to enhance their health-promoting qualities.

Leek. The leek is a vegetable that belongs, along with onion and garlic, to the genus Allium, currently placed in family Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Allioideae.[1] Historically many scientific names were used for leeks, which are now treated as cultivars of Allium ampeloprasum.[2] Two related vegetables, elephant garlic and Kurrat, are also cultivars of A. ampeloprasum, although different in their uses as food.

The edible part of the leek plant is a bundle of leaf sheaths that is sometimes erroneously called a stem or stalk. Form[edit] Cultivars[edit] Leek cultivars may be treated as a single cultivar group, e.g. as Allium ampeloprasum 'Leek Group'.[3] The cultivars can be subdivided in several ways, but the most common types are "summer leeks", intended for harvest in the season when planted, and overwintering leeks, meant to be harvested in the spring of the year following planting. Growing[edit] Leeks are easy to grow from seed and tolerate standing in the field for an extended harvest. Allium porrum (Leek)
