How to Make Squash Relish. 8 cups yellow summer squash
2 cups zucchini
4 cups onions
1 cup bell pepper (any color)
Pour 5 Tbsp canning salt over and then cover over with water in a large dishpan or bowl. Cover with towel or lid. Let stand overnight or at least 8 hours.
Drain and rinse well. I rinse it in clear cool water 3 or 4 times.
Combine these ingredients in large pot over low heat:
2 1/2 cups of white vinegar
5 scant cups of white sugar
1Tbsp dry mustard
2 Tbsp celery seed
1 Tbsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp tumeric
Mix and turn up heat to bring mixture to boil. Pour in diced veggies and bring to boil again. Turn heat down to let mixture simmer for 35-40 minutes. Stir just enough to keep from sticking.
Seal in hot sterilized jars while hot. Leave 3/4 inch headspace for sealing. Let relish rest for 2 wks to get good taste.
Great served over peas, greens and heavenly served with pork as a garnish.
Difficulty: Easy
