There is something quite striking about these leeks and it is their height - well over 3 foot and nearing 4 - and most of the leek consists of that prime white part. They are so prized there is even a yearly festival - the Fiera del Porri which will be commencing November 10th in the nearby town of Cevere.
As I just wrote in my post, you and I are on the same wavelength this week: my BW photo also shows leeks. I must admit I have never tasted this variety of leeks. I certainly wish I could visit the Fiera this Saturday.
ReplyDeleteAmazing porri, I met them a few days ago for the first time at Salone del Gusto :-)
ReplyDeleteAll my friends went crazy and were so funny with those bunches coming out their trolleys :-)
Nice shot!
