My friend just made this and it is without doubt the most delicious relish I've ever tasted. Well worth the effort.

Thanks, This is fantastic. I used to make this one years ago but had lost the recipe in a fire. Made three batches this year and am not sure if this will do the year with all the people asking for a jar! Easy to make. Was easier with an electric food chopper,[on my wih list], but quite do-able by hand. The very best relish for ham and by far my favorite. We use it on everthing. My husband loves it with game.
