And delicious too.
Today I made some with vegetables from the garden – cucumbers, peppers and onions.
I followed the Sweet Relish recipe in this book. Very simple. Chop veggies with a food processor, soak in salted water, drain and then cook with vinegar and spices. I did run into a problem where I was 1 cup short on cucumber and 1/2 cup short on onion – I just put in an extra 1 1/2 cup of peppers. I’ve done that in the past and had good or at least unnoticeable results.
Here are some pictures of the process. The cast:
All chopped up. If you lean in close enough to the monitor you can smell how yummy it is.
Cooking with the yummy sugary spicy goodness.
The finished product. Yum. It yielded 4 pints. I plan to make one or two batches more. I’m not sure if I’ll try different recipes or stick with this one. We’ll see.
We’ve actually forgone buying relish since we ran out of our homemade stuff a few months ago. We’re such snobs that we’d rather wait for homemade before buying the other stuff :P
