Description
Organic Leek
Organic Leek seeds, botanical name Allium porrum, are one of the most famous and appreciated varieties of liliaceae for their fresh and intense taste, like that of the adult vegetable, and their great versatility in cooking. Tender and thin, they are also rich in vitamins and minerals.
How can I grow it?
Producing organic Leek sprouts is quick and easy, even at home.
The first step is to store the seeds in the refrigerator for a couple of days: this step will awaken their germination willpower and make your harvest quicker and more uniform. Next, soak your organic seeds in warm water. After 6/8 hours, drain them so as not to create water stagnation and place them in a container away from direct light sources. By continuing to rinse and drain them at least a couple of times a day, in just a week you will obtain tender and fragrant filaments with which to enrich any of your dishes with flavour.
How can I eat it?
Organic Leek sprouts and microgreens, with their strong flavour, are a natural and pungent seasoning for your recipes. Try them in salads or sandwiches, as an accompaniment to meat and fish dishes or as a garnish on croutons and bruschettas.
Organic Leek seeds may contain traces of soy, mustard, wheat, gluten and grasses.
Store the seeds in a cool, ventilated place, with temperature between 8° and 20° C, away from weather, changes in humidity and sunlight.
