How to Make Corn And Pepper Relish

  1. Sterilize canning jars, lids, and bands according to manufacturer's instructions.
  2. Shuck and remove the silks from 8 ears of corn.
  3. Cook corn in boiling water for 5 minutes.
  4. Cut the kernels from the cob. You should have approximately 2 quarts of kernels.
  5. Finely chop the bell peppers and onions.
  6. Mince the garlic.
  7. In a large preserving kettle, combine the corn, bell peppers, onions, garlic, sugar, vinegar, salt, mustard seeds, celery seeds, and red pepper flakes (if using).
  8. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring frequently.
  9. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
  10. Ladle the hot relish into the sterilized jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  11. Wipe the jar rims clean with a damp cloth.
  12. Place lids and bands on jars, tightening according to manufacturer's instructions.
  13. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes, ensuring jars are completely submerged.
  14. Remove jars from the water bath and allow to cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal.
