What is the history of leeks?

Leeks were a part of the Egyptian diet from around the 2nd millennium B.C., and were grown in Mesopotamia from about the same period. The leek was the favorite vegetable of the Emperor Nero, who frequently enjoyed them in soup. The Phoenicians are said to have been the first to bring leeks to Wales when trading tin, and it soon became a staple part of the Welsh diet. In about 640 AD, when the Saxons were fighting the Welsh, King Cadwallader told his Welsh soldiers to wear leeks to distinguish themselves from their opponents. To this day, the Welsh still wear a leek or a representation of one in their hats. Leeks were first brought to North America and Canada by early settlers.

What is the onion of a star?

If I understand the question correctly, you are referring to the layers of a massive star as it nears the end of it's life.

When a massive star nears the end of it's life, it runs out of hydrogen, the outward pressure that has kept it stable for most of it's life, is no longer there, this causes a collapse. This collapse, causes the core to heat up and helium is then fused.

This process repeats several times; each time the core collapses, and the collapse is halted by the ignition of a further process involving more massive nuclei and higher temperatures and pressures.

This creates the onion effect, a distinct layer of different fusing, with the lighter - or easier fused" elements towards the edge.
