Has anyone ever pickled leeks?
I'm making room on the lottie for next seasons spuds and I want to dig on the moons last quarter this month (stop laughing), so my nice leeks have to come out soon, and I can only eat so many! Question

Never heard of pickling them....why can't you keep them through the winter and sort the ground out in early spring?

I've not a clue on growing stuff we just bung things in and hope for the best  Laughing
I belive you can pickle them but that was with "wild leeks" but I guess normal ones would turn out ok keep us updated if you have ago Old Lob sounds like a good experiment brewing  Very Happy
