    Submerge leeks in a bowl of water for easier cleaning. The dirt and sand will sink to the bottom. Lift the leeks from the water. A little rinsing may be necessary. I happened to be watching your video as a "wet" snow is falling. Your videos are informative and soothing. Thank you!

      ​@@alejandramolina6999 Today I watched a video from a while ago where he says he started measuring the ingredients using ml, grams and celcious degrees because of the many british viewers he had, but by now I believe Kevin knows that so many people in the world are watching him and we use the metric system and C degrees. I'm so happy he is such a gentleman, not like others just sending us to a blog, to 'below in the description box are your measurements' I was following a YT even bought the book, just to find a microscopic 'conversion table' at the very end of the book.. SO disappointing. The worst are those comments sending us to 'google it' No, Kevin is a gentleman and a wonderful host! That's why he does what he does, and we love him.

    Kevin, you can soften the leeks into good quality oil and a pinch of salt to help release their juices. In this way, leeks get sweeter and therefore tastier. You can then add them to the Bechamel sauce and proceed with your gratin. It shall be much tastier!

    I want to thank you for the Cranberry Sauce with Red Wine and Ginger.
    Yesterday I made it according to your recipe and it came out better than expected - a fantasy of flavors.

    Thank you again a hundred times.

    I have never tasted a leek in my life, I am 57!
    I have seen you use these before in your videos and this has my curiosity up. I am going to plant them this year and give them a try. They remind me of giant scallions. I am sure they need to be started indoors .
    BTW Kevin, I made your chicken and dumpling / biscuit meal yesterday from my own prossessed birds and it was a hit! My hubby loved it and it made extra freezer meals for when he stays at our other farm .

      Leeks are wonderful, and you can have them many ways. Give them a try! But ALWAYS wash thoroughly in plain cold water first, because they will have tiny sand particles from growing, and it ruined a batch of leek soup I made... couldn't get past the gritty texture and had to ditch it all. Lesson learned!

    Wonderful Thanksgiving side dishes and yummy sweet potato pie. I was thinking you might top with some spray whipped cream. That brings me back to my childhood. I absolutely love cranberry sauce, and your recipe looks like a winner! A definite must try. I buy the canned cranberry just for backup. I also make homemade. Sometimes I add cinnamon and clove, along with some orange liqueur. I didn't think to use red wine. I have seen recipes where you top a wheel of brie cheese with cranberry sauce and heat up in the oven to serve with crackers or toast points for an hors d'oeuvre at holiday time. Cute shot of Avery waiting for her piece of the pie. Anyway, thank you for the video. Take care. See you next time and have a great weekend.♥️🥧🐕🍒🌽🍷🦃🎄🦌

I then make the sauce and can it (it's basically a jam), and also dehydrate and vacu-seal the dried cranberries in jars to use over the holidays.
