Tastes really good though the stringiness is too much, it stays in husks even with the pre-blanche and all. I will actually make this again but instead of slicing the long way in going to slice thick, bite sized medallions.

Anyone tried? I wanted to know how it tastes as I been looking for tasty was to incorporate leeks into gut health.
