How to Make Hot Dog Relish
- Chop 1 large bell pepper (any color), 1 medium onion, and 1 cup of shredded green cabbage.
- Place the chopped vegetables in a large stainless steel or heat-resistant glass bowl. Add enough hot water to cover completely. Let stand for 15 minutes to soften the vegetables. Drain well and return to the bowl.
- In a separate saucepan, combine 1/4 cup white vinegar and 1/4 cup water.
- Bring the vinegar mixture to a boil over medium heat. Pour the boiling vinegar mixture over the drained vegetables.
- Let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. Drain the vegetables thoroughly again.
- Transfer the drained vegetables to a stainless steel saucepan large enough to hold all ingredients. Add 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon celery seed. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and let cool slightly.
- Ladle the hot relish into clean, sterilized 1-pint canning jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes to ensure proper sealing. (Always follow safe canning practices.)
- Once cool, store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Once opened, refrigerate and consume within 2 weeks.
