Sweet Onion Relish
From the Kitchen of: Sammie Evans
This relish is enjoyed by all of my family and a host of friends. Included with
jars of jelly, jam, salsa, pickles, etc. in a basket it makes a great gift for Christmas or
anytime. I use 1/2 pint jars.
1/2 | C | All-purpose flour |
2 | lbs | Light brown sugar |
2 | tsp | Tumeric |
2 | tsp | Black pepper |
2 | tbsp | Mustard seeds |
42 | oz | Cider vinegar |
1 | C plus 2 tbsp | Yellow mustard |
2 | lbs | Green cabbage, finely chopped |
8 | lb | Sweet onions, chopped |
1 | | Red pepper, chopped |
3 | | Green peppers, chopped |
- Mix together flour, sugar, tumeric, black pepper and mustard seeds. Stir in vinegar slowly to
prevent lumps. Add mustard. Place into a pot which will be large enough to hold all
ingredients. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring, until mixture begins to
thicken. Add cabbage. Cook until it just begins to soften. Add onions and peppers and
continue to cook until they also just begin to soften. Stir frequently to prevent scorching.
- When the vegetables are ready, you may either put them up in hot, sterilized canning jars
(follow the directions on the package to seal the tops) or you may simply store in the
refrigerator. It will keep there in jars for about 2 months.
