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

    Asafoetida. When uncooked, the smell fits the hype of the various names from around the world: stinking gum, devil’s dirt, devil shit, satan’s shit, etc. Cooked, it tastes and smells like a very umami cross between garlic & leeks. Common in Indian cuisine, particularly vegetarian dishes.
