While leeks may be a member of the onion and garlic family, they have a sweeter, more delicate flavor. Leeks lend a subtle accent to a variety of recipes. In this video, learn Martha Stewart's favorite way to cook them—to braise them. First, prepare the leeks by removing the outer leaves and trimming the ends. Cook in butter until softened and golden brown. Add stock and wine to deglaze the pan and then bring to a boil. Finally, reduce the liquid, sprinkle with parsley, salt, and pepper, then serve. Braised leeks are an easy, classic french recipe that you're sure to love.
