(Later in the year there are plenty of suitable vegetables.) Then make a brine of HL of salt to 4 quarts of water, and let all the vegetables stand in it for 15 hours. Then put all in the preserving pan and boil for five minutes. Then pour the water off. Next make a mixture of 4 tablespoons mustard, 1 tablespoon curry powder, 1 tablespoon tumeric, 1 cup sugar, t cup flour (mixed smooth with r little cold vinegar) and 2 quarts of vinegar. Boil until thick. Then put the vegetables in, and boil for 5 minutes longer. Screw down into preserving jars.
