Recipe by kyky9353

As a home health aide, I took care of a 96 year old woman. This is her recipe and is just fantastic. I had to make a couple of batches just to get the measurements--you know--oh use about this much of this...This is great on a plain old hotdog and is also excellent served with pork. Not your average everyday relish I tell you. You've got to try this if your a canner!

DIRECTIONS

Mix vegetables together with salt and let set for about 3 hours. Run cold water over and rinse really well. Let stand in a colander for about 1 hour as to get most of the water out. I use a cone shaped jam/jelly colander and then press down on the vegetables occaisonally to get more water out. Place well drained vegetables in a kettle. Add remaining ingredients and gently boil for 20 minutes. Place in sterilized jars and seal.
