Leeks, with their sweetness and nutritional benefits, are a staple of French cuisine! Whether you like soups, gratins or quiches, organic leeks can be found in many everyday dishes. But because of seasonal constraints, leeks are not available all year round. That's where IQF organic frozen leeks come in, a healthy, practical and environmentally-friendly solution that lets you enjoy the benefits of this vegetable all year round!
Thanks to IQF (Individual Quick Freezing), FRDP makes it possible to enjoy this vegetable whatever the season, while preserving its taste and nutritional qualities. Discover how this healthy product can transform your culinary habits and simplify your daily life.
The IQF process involves freezing vegetables at very low temperatures, just after they have been harvested. This method enables organic leeks to preserve their nutritional qualities, thanks to an environmentally responsible production method. The IQF method also ensures that organic leeks are easy to use, as it prevents the leeks from sticking together and means that only the quantity needed is used.
Unlike fresh leeks, which are only available in winter, frozen organic leeks are available all year round in your freezer. Whether you want them in your hot soups in winter, or in fresh salads in summer, this organic frozen vegetable is perfect for all your culinary needs. They're great for cooking without waste, because once they're frozen, they don't go stale quickly in your freezer.
