More Leeky Goodness

IMAG0067

My very clever partner made this leek and potato soup and it tastes amazing!! I don’t know if it’s because the leeks are home grown or if he’s just very skilled but it’s particularly special! I was worried that the leeks were still too young to make good soup as I’d read that fully grown leeks are best for soup and mine still looked quite small. I’ve still got 6 leeks growing so will see if we can make an even better soup when they’re more mature! Next year I’m going to try growing them in ‘hilled up’ soil as I have read that this helps achieve the maximum white section at the base. As always, will let you all know what works! Given this is my first year growing vegetables there’s lots of trial and error to come!
