"Best chow ever! My grandmother and I made this--it's really good. My husband gives it to everyone we know. Chop fine except cabbage; red tomatoes deseed. More cayenne for hot, none for not hot. Deseed all peppers. Makes a great gift. Very pretty and your husband and friends will love it. Makes about 8-9 pints."
