What purpose does the onion do in the recipe you have? Why add them ?

Meatloaf. I use Zesty Italian dressing just fill your jars with the leeks and fill the jar with Italian dressing until they cover the leeks and you can add a few garlic cloves. I also do the same with cider vinegar we might add some garlic cloves and canning salt maybe about a teaspoon full.
Jack that leek dip recipe was really good. I tried it right after I made it and it seemed a little to sweet, like I had put to much sugar into it. But after a couple days the sweetness died down and the leeks really started to be able to be tasted. I'm going to have to make that again here in the near future. Thanks for sharing it. ;D
