When my husband and I started dating years ago, his grandmother would send down quarts of her Chow-Chow when she found out how much I loved it. Sadly, we lost her sometime after that and the recipe was lost too....or so I thought. My DH's aunt had it! This will scorch very easy. Don't try to rush it. Ingredients:
1 gallon red ripe tomato, peeled |
4 cups sugar |
1 1/2 cups white vinegar |
6 hot peppers |
6 large onions |
6 green bell peppers |
Directions:
1. Chop tomatoes peppers and onions bite-size or smaller.
2. Put all ingredients in a large pot and cook on low simmer for 3-4 hours. (Recipe says to cook it slow and cook down low ).
3. Sterilize your canning jars & lids in boiling water.
4. Fill the jars and place tops on tight.
5. After filling jars, give them a 45-minute bath in boiling water.
6. Enjoy.
