Row 7 sweet garleek tostada
We are excited to feature Row 7 Seed Company sweet garleek on the menu through august 27! We made rajas. We are cooking down the garlic-leek hybrid in butter along with roasted poblano peppers until almost melted. Then binding everything together with creme fraiche. The dish is finished with both dehydrated and burnt garleek powder.
