When I'm left with green tomatoes at the end of summer, I reach for this recipe. Friends and family are so happy to receive the sweet-sour relish that they often return the empty jar and ask for a refill!Mary Gill, Florence, Oregon Ingredients:
7 pounds green tomatoes (about 20 medium) |
4 large onions |
2 large red onions |
3 large green peppers |
2 large sweet red peppers |
4 teaspoons canning salt |
5 cups cider vinegar |
4 cups sugar |
2 tablespoons celery seed |
4 teaspoons mustard seed |
Directions:
1. Cut the tomatoes, onions and peppers into wedges. In a food processor, cover and process vegetables in batches until finely chopped. Stir in salt. Divide mixture between two strainers and place each over a bowl. Let stand for 3 hours.
2. Discard liquid from bowls. Place vegetables in a stockpot; stir in the vinegar, sugar, celery seed and mustard seed. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes or until thickened.
3. Carefully ladle hot mixture into hot pint jars, leaving 1/2-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles; wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner. Yield: 8 pints.
