Step 1
Trim the root and the dark green tops off each leek.
Step 2
Slice the leek in half lengthwise. Place it flat-side-down on a cutting board, then slice into half-moon shapes.
Step 3
Transfer leek slices to a large bowl filled with cold water. Stir the leeks a bit to release any grit, then lift them out of the water, leaving behind any sediment. Repeat with clean water until no dirt remains.
Step 4
Transfer leeks to a food storage container lined with a paper towel. Cover with an airtight lid and store in the fridge for up to a week.
