Watching this video reminds me of a recipe i loooveee: it steams leeks, thyme and salmon, removes the salmon once cooked, and adds butter and white wine to make that same kind of melted leek sauce, which goes on top of the salmon. It gives such a delicate but strong and sweet “leeky” flavor which pairs really well with the tender salmon.

Great idea! I’m new to using leeks! I love them especially in vichyssoise!

[@justinkhanna]

Absolutely - classic combo

Thanks. 🎉 at last. Great method. Even the taped pot handles re-inforce the idea 💡of - which one ? Hi to the videographer.

[@justinkhanna]

yeah that's an old habit, too!

Next use a steamer! 😜👀

Best steam them so they don't lose nutrition, like most veg.
