Cucumber Relish

Mandi asked me to post my recipe for relish, so here goes.

Grind through a food processor:

12-14 cucumbers
1 bunch celery
2 onions
2 green peppers
2 sweet peppers

Let stand overnight. I cover it and put it in the refrigerator, but you probably don't have to do this.

Drain and add:

2 Tablespoons salt

Mix well. Bring to boil in a large kettle:

3 cups sugar
3 cups vinegar (I use white)
1 tsp. celery seed
1/2 tsp. tumeric
1 tsp. mustard seed

Add vegetables and cook 30 minutes. Fill into jars and seal. I did not water bath can these. They sealed on their own. Just listen for the popping sound! ;-)

  2. Yum! That looks delicious! I have never thought to put celery in my relish, I will have to try your recipe.
    I love having relish on hand, not only for hot dogs, but for making dressings and tarter sauce too!

    Blessings!

  4. Lisa, I really don't know. I would imagine that it might have a lot more juice than the cucumbers.
