Ingredients

• ✓ leek
• butter

Instructions

1. 1 Cut leeks about 1/4 inch above the roots and inspect for any soil. If soil is found, make another cut about 1/4 inch above the first one.
2. 2 Trim away the dark green sheaths, and again, inspect for soil. Tear away the outer layer of the white part of the leek, as it will be tough. Clean and reserve sheaths for seasoning, if desired.
3. 3 Cut leeks lengthwise, making narrow cuts, about 1/4 inch wide (julienne cut). If any soil is found, place cut leeks in a colander and submerge in a bowl of water. Swish gently, allowing any sediment to settle to the bottom. Remove leeks from the water, drain, and pat dry with paper towels.
4. 4 Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until foamy. Add leeks and cook, stirring constantly, about 4 minutes. Pour in wine and cook until leeks are tender, about 1 minute.
5. 5 Remove from heat and stir in remaining butter. Season with salt and garnish with fresh parsley.
