Steps:
- Trim leeks and discard most of dark-green parts. Cut leeks in half lengthwise and wash well, keeping halves intact. Steam leeks 15 minutes, or until tender. Arrange leeks, cut sides up, on a buttered baking sheet.
- Preheat broiler.
- In a small saucepan melt butter and stir in bread crumbs and salt and pepper to taste. Spoon bread crumb mixture onto leeks, patting down mixture with back of spoon to help adhere. Broil leeks 2 to 3 inches from heat until bread crumbs are golden brown, about 3 minutes.
BROILED LEEKS VINAIGRETTE
A classic French first course, cooked leeks dressed with a mustardy vinaigrette can be wonderful or dull, depending on the size of the leeks. Don't use giant ones; choose medium to small leeks for tender results. A few minutes under the broiler adds flavor to this version, which is served warm.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a simmer. Prepare the leeks: Trim leeks of outer layer and roots. Cut crosswise to divide leeks into white bottoms and green tops (remove and discard the tough gray-green parts). Soak leeks in a large bowl of lukewarm water, swishing to dislodge sand. Lift from water and drain.
- Add the white pieces to the pot and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, remove the white pieces, then cook the green pieces for 4 to 5 minutes. Both white and green pieces should be tender when probed with a paring knife. Blot dry. Transfer to a baking dish in one layer. Let cool.
- Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk in 6 tablespoons olive oil. Set aside.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs, thyme and Parmesan. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper; toss well. Spread crumbs on a baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until crisp and golden. When cool, mix in 2 tablespoons parsley.
- Heat broiler. Brush leeks lightly with olive oil and place several inches from flame. Broil for about 5 minutes, until browned and lightly charred.
- Spoon vinaigrette evenly over leeks. Top with crumbs and egg. Sprinkle with remaining parsley. Serve warm.

BUTTERED BREADCRUMBS
Buttered breadcrumbs can be used to top casseroles and au gratin dishes or as garnish for vegetables. For extra rich buttered breadcrumbs, double the amount of butter. This uses Soft Breadcrumbs which I posted separately. Variations: Add to taste grated parmesan cheese, minced parsley, minced toasted walnuts, toasted almonds or toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a small skillet over medium low heat. As soon as butter is melted and frothy, stir in breadcrumbs. Continue stirring until crumbs are evenly crisp and golden brown.
- If using any of the above mentioned variations add to the finshed buttered breadcrumbs.
BURRATA WITH LEEKS VINAIGRETTE AND MUSTARD BREAD CRUMBS
Steps:
- To prepare the bread crumbs, adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 275°F.
- Put the mustard seeds in a small skillet and toast them over high heat, shaking the pan and taking care not to let them smoke or burn, until they begin to smell fragrant and toasty like popcorn and brown slightly, about 2 minutes. Set the mustard seeds aside to cool slightly.
- Stir the mustard seeds, mustard, wine, salt, and pepper together in a medium bowl. Drizzle in the oil, whisking constantly. Add the bread and use your hands to massage the marinade into the bread so that all the marinade is absorbed. Scatter the bread on a baking sheet and toast it in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours, until the croutons are crunchy and toasted all the way through, but not browned. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and set aside to cool the croutons to room temperature. Transfer the croutons to a food processor and grind them until they are the consistency of coarse crumbs; you want them to have some texture, not to be powder.
- To make the mustard vinaigrette, spoon the mustard into a medium bowl and slowly pour in the Lemon Vinaigrette, whisking to keep it emulsified. The mustard should be spoonable, but not as thick as mayonnaise. If it is too thick, add more vinaigrette. Use the vinaigrette or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate it for up to three days. Bring the vinaigrette to room temperature and whisk to recombine the ingredients before using.
- To serve, lay two leek halves side by side, root sides together, on each of six salad plates or in pairs on one long serving platter and sprinkle them with the sea salt. Spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons of the mustard vinaigrette on the leeks close to the root ends and, using the back of the spoon, smear the vinaigrette over the length of the leeks. Cut the burrata into six equal-size segments and lay one segment of burrata on each serving of leeks, closer to one end or the other rather than in the center. Pile 2 tablespoons of the bread crumbs on each serving of burrata, and sprinkle with the parsley.
- Braised Leeks
- Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Peel away and discard the outer layer of each leek and trim and discard the hairy roots, leaving the very ends of the roots attached. One at a time, place the leeks on the cutting board and, with the white end pointing away from you, remove the dark green part of the leek, cutting it at an angle and rolling the leek a quarter-turn to repeat the same cut. Continue rolling and cutting in this manner until the tapered pale green ends resemble a sharpened pencil. Discard the dark green trimmings. Cut the leeks in half lengthwise, rinse to remove the fine grit, and pat dry.
- Place the leeks in a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer, such as a 9 by 13-inch Pyrex dish. Drizzle the leeks with 1/4 cup of the olive oil, sprinkle them with the salt and several turns of pepper, and toss to coat the leeks with the seasonings. Arrange the leeks cut side up in a single layer in the baking dish and pour in the stock, adding more if necessary for it to come three-fourths of the way up the sides of the leeks. Drizzle the remaining 1/2 cup of olive oil over the leeks, and lay the lemon slices and scatter the thyme sprigs over them. If you have industrial-strength plastic wrap, which does not melt in the oven, cover the pan tightly with the plastic. In any case, cover the pan tightly with foil and place the leeks in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove the leeks from the oven and increase the temperature to 400°F. Remove and discard the foil, and plastic if you used it; remove and discard the lemon slices and thyme sprigs, and return the leeks to the oven until they are glazed and golden brown and the liquid has evaporated, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature and serve, or wrap them in a single layer with plastic wrap, and refrigerate them for up to two days. Bring the leeks to room temperature before serving them.
