2 bunches of leeks
1/2 cup butter
1/2 lb mushrooms chopped
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp salt
dash of cayenne pepper
1 cup chicken broth
3 cups milk
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Wash leeks and only use white part.
Slice and saute leeks in 1/4 cup butter until tender but not brown.
Set aside.
In remaining butter, saute mushrooms until they are soft.
Blend in flour, salt and cayenne.
Put in bigger put and gradually stir in milk and chicken broth.
Cook until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
Add leeks, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste.

Boil Brine:
3 cups water
3 cups white vinegar
3 cups white sugar
1 Tbsp salt
1 Tbsp whole allspice
Strain allspice out.
Pour over prepared peppers in jar and seal.
Method:
Use waterever color of peppers you want. Wash and cut in different shapes…not tiny, make them about a couple of inches across. Different is colors is pretty and looks nice in the jars.
A quarter bushle makes 4 litres of peppers.
Bring a large pot of water to the boil Blanch peppers for 30 – 60 seconds.
Do not leave them over 60 seconds as the skins will peel off.
Put hot peppers into the hot jars and pour boiling bring over. Put in 1 large clove of garlic which I usually put in first and one medium bunch of dill. If you want to make hot peppers, put in a piece of hot pepper, if you want to. Seal it. You do not have to process this. This is the best pickle best pickled peppers you’ve ever tasted.
