Comment préparer Ella's Chow Chow

Combine all ingredients in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat and let cool completely. This allows the flavors to meld.
Ladle the chow chow into sterilized jars, leaving about ½ inch of headspace.
Wipe the rims of the jars clean, then seal tightly with lids.
Process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for precise instructions).
Remove jars and let cool completely. You should hear a satisfying ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal.
Once completely cooled, check the seals by pressing down on the center of each lid. If the lid doesn't flex, it's sealed! Store in a cool, dark pantry for up to 2 years.
