after picking the leaves (we try to pick leaves that would be shading the
tiny bunches of grapes), we rinse them and trim off the stems, stack them
in piles of 10 to 15 leaves, roll them and tie them off with some hemp
twine, blanche them in a medium salt brine, put them in quart jars, fill
with the brine, add some lemon juice to the brine and process in a water
bath for 15 min.
