How to Make Favourite Relish
- Coarsely chop 6 cups of mixed vegetables (onions, peppers, etc.) using a food processor in pulse mode. Alternatively, chop by hand.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped vegetables with 1/4 cup of kosher salt. Cover with boiling water, ensuring the vegetables are fully submerged.
- Let the vegetables stand for 3 hours to draw out excess moisture.
- Drain the vegetables thoroughly and rinse under cold water to remove excess salt.
- To make the pickling liquid, combine the following in a large stockpot: 4 cups white vinegar, 2 cups sugar, 1/2 cup yellow mustard seeds, 2 tablespoons celery seed, 1 tablespoon turmeric, and 1 teaspoon black peppercorns. Bring to a boil.
- Add the drained vegetables to the boiling pickling liquid. Return the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the relish simmers, sterilize 12 half-pint jars. Using a canning funnel or ladle, carefully fill the hot jars with the relish, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
- Remove air bubbles by running a non-metallic utensil around the inside of the jar.
- Wipe the jar rims clean. Place lids and rings on jars and tighten fingertip tight.
- Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust according to your altitude).
- Remove jars from the canner and let them cool completely. Check for seals. Any unsealed jars should be refrigerated and consumed within 2 weeks.
