To prepare leeks, cut off the roots. If the dark-green outer leaves are tough, spotty, dirty, or damaged, remove them. Trim the ends of the remaining leaves. Take a sharp knife and the leeks in half lengthwise, then slice or chop. Place in a bowl of water and swirl around until the dirt falls to the bottom. Take the leeks out, place them in a colander, and rinse again. Many recipes call for just the white parts of leeks, but the light green is just as good, and even the dark green is fine, as long as you sautée it for at least 5 minutes or so.
The only truly edible part of the leek are the parts that are white. Save and use the green parts for soups or stocks. Cut off the green leaves and cut the leek in half. Rinse VERY well in water, you'll see a lot of sand at the base. Follow recipe directions.
You slice it all the way up in small rounds. Stop when you come to the green bits at the top.
