A marinated Japanese leek dish I had at a veggie restaurant once was so delicious, I wanted to come up with my own easy version using ponzu.
Since I love leeks in the winter when they're in season, I make a huge amount and keep a stock of this dish in the fridge.

It's best if you sprinkle on a generous amount of Krazy Salt.
Use the leftover marinade as dressing for salads or carpaccio. Recipe by Azuki milk
