- 1 Tbsp Mustard seed
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 1 sprig rosemary

Preparation
1.
Rinse the jars in hot water, then drain on a kitchen towel. Rinse the leeks and celery, and chop into coarse pieces. Blanch in boiling salted water for 4 minutes, then drain well. Bring the vinegar, sugar, and 500 ml (approximately 17 ounces) of water to boil in a saucepan.
2.
Portion the leeks and celery into the jars. Place the spices and rosemary in the jars, and add one chili per jar. Fill the jars with the hot cooking liquid, and tightly seal.
