Varna Leek
Varna Leek is an early-maturing European variety producing long, elegant, well-blanched shanks with a sweet, mild onion flavor that is more delicate and refined than later-season storage leeks. Its slender profile and tender flesh make it particularly well-suited for dishes where leek is the star — classic vichyssoise, leeks braised in butter and white wine, or slow-roasted whole until silky and caramelized. An excellent choice for gardeners wanting leeks earlier in the season with exceptional eating quality.
