Saffron Poached Leeks
This versatile side dish will become a spring time staple. Perfect alongside everything from roast meat to vegetarian pasta, the leeks are tender, buttery and melt in your mouth. After a little prep work they cook slowly in a bath of chardonnay, chicken stock and butter. You can season them simply with a crack of pepper or make them extra special with a couple of pinches of Saffron to add elegant flavor and a beautiful yellow hue. This dish is a welcome addition to any Springtime table.
