I can't tell you the number of times I've googled how to do something and a video of yours was the first to pop up. I've lost over 80 pounds and I've learned so much about clean eating from you! Thank you!
Thanks so much Dani! I went crazy at the market buying veggies I've never used before and realized I don't know how to cut, clean and use and your video really helps!
Thank you for explaining the different cuts! First time cooking with leeks in my household and the first video we saw wasted the tops and only did half moon cuts. We appreciate you!
Thank you so very much @Clean & Delicious for kindly sharing this blessed and informative video with all of us! I didn’t know a thing about leeks until now… I have been watching @Gordon Ramsay’s cooking videos so I could get some more meal ideas for my family and he used blessed leeks in several of his recipes so thanks again!! I pray wonderful, peaceful, fun, delicious, happy, healing and healthy blessings for everybody and everything everywhere! Much Respectful love to all from Texas! ☮️🙏🍀💖🪁🥳🛹🍶🥰😇🫶🏼🛏🪶💗💐🍓👏🎂😉
Thanks so much Dani! I bought 2 Leeks for the first time because they were on special, yet I've never cooked a leek before and seen one before till now (I'm Asian so never cook with leeks normally, just spring onions). Your video was very educational and I am grateful for your teaching.
Zshuzshem-up...we use it all the time here in Africa/Cape Town...it’s like mix-it up or blend it if you’re using a blender etc...or make it look yourself look good (clean-up) if you dressing up say for a quick impromptu get together!!! Fun, useful word...
I'm new to the world of clean eating. I've been having fun making new recipes. one I love is root stew but I had no idea how you prep leeks, parsnips, turnips or rutabagas. your chanel has helped me so much! thank you!
This was enormously helpful. I've been cooking for decades, and yet somehow leeks have eluded my recipes. Tonight - there they were. Your tutorial helped ensure they came out tender and delicious.
Thank you so much for this, today is my first time seeing, much less preparing leeks and now I feel much more ready to take those leeks on! Very thorough, clear and helpful!
Been cutting leeks for awhile as they're a favorite veggie of mine. My best friend was judging me for cutting off the very top (I actually keep some of the dark green part) so I'm very glad to prove her wrong haha!!
Dani your video came at a perfect time for me today as I am making a big pot of Oxtail Soup and it calls for leeks and I couldn’t remember the correct way of cutting and preparing them once cleaned and dried i carmelized them in a little butter and flour and added to our soup THANKS FOR SHARING you got a new follower!!
I make just random soups from time to time, with whatever i have around the kitchen. Tonight my family wants me to make a soup for dinner so im gonna make a homemade chicken noodle. And after watching this im gonna pick up a leek and keep it whole to toss in for a different flavor! Thanks for the video :)
Thank you so much. I just bought my first leek and looked at them and said....I need help to do this right and you saved my frustration of trying to figure it out. I loved that it was short and sweet. Thanks again.
Thank you for this video! I have just turned vegan and leek is a part of many vegan recipes, so thank you for explaining really thoroughly how to do this!
Perfect. I bought a leek from my Coles two weeks because I’ve always wanted to know what it taste like. However, I had no idea what to do with it. Now I kinda do. Half moon the bad boy and add it to the pot with lamb, potatoes, carrots and mushrooms. See how we go.
I never worked with Leeks before and you did an awesome job on cutting options and understanding about dirt. I had no idea. And saving some of it for vegetable stock for later.
I love your verbiage @1:25, Just shouge them around a little bit. I work with all different types of people, and I find these little habits of words so interesting and fun! Love your channel. Thanks for always sharing your talent.
Incredibly helpful, and the reasons for doing everything!? so nice, just an added touch. I have seen leaks before; I knew they tasted kind of like onions, and that was it. somebody gave me free vegetables and they gave me some leaks(?) and I was like, 'oh God I hope there's something' ..thank you so much, if I did more cooking I would subscribe,, I Will Remember You🤩
I found a recipe that called for leeks. I bought them today but had no clue how to prep them. I was hoping you had a video on it and yes you did. Thanks.
Thank you for this. I have been recently expanding my veggie/aromatic palate, and decided to include leeks, and this was a quick, simple tutorial on how to prepare them properly. I put some half-moon leeks in my chicken soup and it added a beautiful new flavor undertone. ^_^
You can cut the leek into strips or rings making sure they are individual before deep frying the. They come out like potatoes chips. Serve with sour cream.
Thank you! I have leeks growing in my garden but have never used them in cooking so I wasn't sure which part to use. Now, I'm off to make some tomato, rosemary leek soup! :)
Exactly what I needed to know without a lot of chitchat I don't have time for. Thank you.
My pleasure :)
Straight and to the point. That's how I like it myself.
Exactly my thoughts. Are you from NYC? Feel like something a fellow NYer would say!
Exactly. THANK YOU!
No time for chit chat, but time to tell us all what you don't have time for.
I can't tell you the number of times I've googled how to do something and a video of yours was the first to pop up. I've lost over 80 pounds and I've learned so much about clean eating from you! Thank you!
Well done
Wow, that's a lot of weight good for you! I lost 80lbs from exercise and cutting junk food, great feeling.
Impressive comment, I bought it, hope you're not a family member lol
Googles algorithm is giving you the content it knows you like first. :)
Always nice to have these simple resources available for when you just need to be sure you’re remembering right
three minutes ago i didn't know what a leek looked like and now i know how to cut and prep. thanks!
RICK J awesome!
Using leeks for the first time in life and this is just what I needed
Still a very knowledgeable and straight-to-the-point video years later. Thanks!
Thanks for the whole leeks explanation. Just what I needed.
Thanks so much Dani! I went crazy at the market buying veggies I've never used before and realized I don't know how to cut, clean and use and your video really helps!

I'm so glad it was helpful! Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you for this! Very considerate of our time, also great tip about rinsing upside down to keep the dirt from running back into the leek!
love this video. tons of information without silly music and waste of time talking. thank you VERY much!
1:27 "Shuzum" is the *perfect* word. I'm appropriating it.
Where did you hear that? 🤔
"Shoosh" 'em around.
She appropriated it from Rachel Ray. Rachel says it all the time.
More like 1:26

Great video for people to learn how to clean leeks. It's nice to see actually useful videos these days.
This is a great beginners guide to leeks. It answered the two questions I had about leeks. What flavour it has and what parts of it you eat.
Thankyou.
High quality, useful content like this is what makes youtube so great.

Making a potato leek soup, never used leeks in a recipe. Thank you, straight and to the point. 🙂
I've always eaten the leek leaves cooked in oil, or raw in a salad. delicious.
