About Prei

Prei, known as leek in English, is a versatile vegetable prized for its mild onion-like flavor and culinary adaptability. Belonging to the allium family, it has origins rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines but is now widely used across European and Asian dishes. Prei is low in calories yet rich in essential nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate and dietary fiber, which support digestion, immune health, and cell function. It also contains antioxidants like polyphenols, which help fight inflammation and protect against oxidative stress. Prei is naturally free of fat and cholesterol, making it a heart-healthy choice. Its subtle flavor enhances soups, stews, stir-fries, and savory pies. While prei is packed with nutrients, overcooking can diminish some of its health benefits, so it's best prepared lightly. A delicious and nutritious addition to any meal!
