LEEKS WITH CREAMY WINE SAUCE
The lowly leek, which resembles a scallion on steroids, is a national emblem of Wales. Did you know that on March 1, St. David's Day, patriotic Welsh and those of Welsh descent wear a leek on their clothing? (I'm guessing not a REAL one but a pin??) Also, it is tradition that soldiers in the Welsh regiments eat a raw leek on St David's Day. Posted for ZWT II.

Steps:
- Clean the leeks using your tried & true method or trim off the root end and about 1/4 inch of the white base. Remove any ragged, coarse outer leaves and discard. Trim each of the darkest portion of the leaves down to the light green, more tender portion, leaving about 2 inches of green. Slice the leeks down the center and rinse under cold running water to remove all dirt and sand, being careful to get in between the leaves. Drain on paper towels and proceed with recipe.
- Cut leeks in half lengthwise then cut into thin half moon slices. Place in a colander & rinse again. (leeks seem to be sand magnets).
- Melt butter in a saucepan or large frying pan. Add leeks, wine, salt & garlic. Cook over low heat for 10 minutes.
- Add chicken stock & continue cooking until leeks are soft, another 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from heat & stir in the creme fraiche, parsley, lemon juice & Tabasco.

Steps:
- Trim the leeks and remove the tough outer leaves. Slice the white and light green part into 1/4-inch rings, put them into a large bowl of water and swish gently to remove any dirt or sand; drain in a colander.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt butter. Add leeks and cook until they are just starting to get tender and lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and sauté until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Stir together whipping cream and Dijon mustard and pour into the skillet, stirring until well incorporated. Reduce heat to low and simmer until leeks are tender but still crisp, 6 to 8 minutes (don't overcook). Season with salt and pepper and remove skillet from heat.
- Sprinkle with nutmeg and Parmesan cheese; serve immediately
