Crisp Tofu Leek Salad Recipes
BRAISED LEEK SALAD
Created by Chef Aaron Bashy for "Chef on a Shoestring." The CBS Saturday Early Show challenge was to create a gourmet 3 course meal for 4 people for less than $20. I love leeks, but often find them overpowered in dishes where they aren't the main attraction. This recipe really showcases the leeks in all their subtle glory by caramelizing them and then adding just a few ingredients to complement the leek itself. In fact, the recipe features 3 of my favorite ingredients: leeks, feta cheese and Kalamata olives. Can't go wrong with that combination. To prepare leeks, trim off the tough dark green bits and the roots. Cut in half lengthwise then swish in a bowl of clean water to remove the sand and sediment that gets trapped between the rings of the leek. The wine is optional, but recommended.

Steps:
- Thoroughly dry the leeks.
- Warm the olive oil in a saute pan set over moderate heat. Add the leeks to the pan, flat side down. Caramelize the leeks, paying careful attention to avoid burning them, about 4 minutes. Remove the leeks from the pan using tongs or a slotted spoon.
- If using wine, deglaze the pan with it and cook until the wine is reduced by half, a few seconds. Add the vinegar and reduce by one third, another few seconds. Add the stock and reduce by half, again, just a few seconds.
- Place one leek half on each of four salad plates. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle equal portions of the sauce over the leeks, sprinkle with crumbled cheese and garnish with the olives.

CRISP LEEK SALAD
This recipe originates in Wales. From Classic International Recipes. Use only the white and light green portions of the leeks.....I couldn't include that in the ingredients for some reason. Prep and cook time does not include the one hour chilling time.

CRISP TOFU & LEEK SALAD
This dish not only looks good, it does you good too. The discovery of Tofu was in China, the story is that a Chinese chef accidently curdled Soya milk when he added Nigari Seaweed - creating Tofu! How lucky for us, a protein that contains all the eight essential amino acids and Iron, Calcium, vitamin B1 to name just a few of it's nutrients. Healthy eating!
