Leeks vinaigrette, or poireaux vinaigrette, is a timeless French classic. Starring tender poached leeks in a bold, tangy dressing, the dish is a delicious, affordable, and uncomplicated but elegant starter to make at home. 

It also gives these seasonal alliums, often thought of as a supporting player, a well-deserved moment to shine.
