Leek Three Ways

Ingredients

  • 5 ea.
    Leeks

    Kombu Dashi
  • 20 g
    Shiro Shoyu
  • 10 g
    Dark Soy Sauce

Preparation

Remove the outside layer of the leeks, and slice the bottom third of each one into 1-inch rounds. Steam for 4 minutes in a bamboo steamer. Season to taste with Kosher salt when removed from the steamer. Slice the middle portion of each leek into 2-millimeter rounds, and rinse in cold water; drain. Heat the dashi and add the seasonings, but do not boil. Add the middle portion of leeks for 1 minute, and then strain.

To serve, add some steamed leeks to the bottom of a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of oil, and pour in 200 grams of hot broth.
