Onion only dishes - Bread them and deep fry them and make them 1200+ calories for a single onion
Leek only dishes - Clean them, blanch and marinate them, then serve whole
Garlic only dishes - lol
See what i'm getting at? The leek is the only Allium that can hold its own while still being just as aromatic as the rest!
You call that stench "aromatic?"
So that was supposed to be a "leek only" dish, yet it has a a lot of seasoning to cover up it's foul flavor?
Now just because your culinary experience is so limited you think retarded leeks make a good dish, doesn't mean you should take it out on the innocent garlic and onions. Both of these magnificent vegetables are especially delicious and can be the star of their own simple dishes. Like this traditional baked onion or this incredible garlic soup.
ok, ok, I placed undue hatred towards garlic and onions. I love them both, I did leave out the standard French Onion Soup for an onion kicker, but often bread and cheese are involved in that. Maybe I'll give garlic soup a try.
My question to you is how many times have you cooked with or tried cooking with leeks? It's really basically a green onion on steroids, but you can't use the greens without cooking them.
Are you kidding me? Garlic and Onions are Kong and Queen of the Allium genus! Leeks are lucky to be even considered a relative of the Almighty onion!
