How to Make Sweet Pickle Relish (the healthier way)
- 8 medium sized cucumbers
- 2 large onions
- 2 sweet green peppers
- 1 sweet red pepper
- ⅓ cup sea salt
- 3 cups rapadura or sucanat
- 3 cups apple cider vinegar
- 2 T. whole celery seed
- 2 T. whole mustard seed
- Begin by slicing the cucumbers, peppers and onions.
- Chop the vegetables into tiny pieces. I find that putting them into my food processor works best for this.
- Pour the chopped veggies into a large bowl.
- Cover them with water and let them soak for about two hours (longer won't hurt).
- Pour the soaked veggies through a strainer until all the water is drained out.
- Pour strained veggies into a bowl and add remaining ingredients.
- Stir well.
- Pour contents of bowl into a large pot.
- Bring to a boil.
- Simmer relish for ten minutes, then transfer it into pint sized jars. (I was able to make six full pints, with a little bit leftover.)
- Following these hot water bath canning methods, process the pickle relish for 10 minutes (from start of boiling).
