I finally was able to find leeks at the grocery store for a reasonable price, since nearly every store near me has them in the "organic super food" section at $5 a stalk.

I turned it into some incredibly delicious Leek and Potato (And onion, I didn't read the recipe closely) soup.

I think I cursed myself, because now I'm going to be wanting leeks even more

There are so much delicious recipes with leeks : leek and potato soup, leek chowder, leek pie (with or without salmon), leek fondue (works great with smoked sausages), cold leeks and vinaigrette. It can also be used in couscous..

If you have the chance to get a whole plant, use the green part for the soup/chowder for a stronget vegetal flavor and the white part for other recipes.
