Sauces and Marinades -
Ripe Tomato Relish
|
| INGREDIENTS |
- 22 medium ripe tomatoes, pared, deseeded, and chopped

8 medium onions, coarsely chopped

2 hot peppers
-
2 tablespoons (noniodized) salt
-
3 cups sugar
-
1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar

| INSTRUCTIONS |
Peel tomatoes. To deseed, take whole tomato into the palm of your hand and squeeze hard until most all seeds are extracted, then finely chop tomatoes into a kettle to which remaining ingredients are added.
Slowly cook by bringing to a boil, then reducing heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, especially toward the end of the cooking time. Cook for about two hours or until most of the liquid is cooked down into a thick relish. Pack into hot, sterilized pint jars and seal.
Yield: Approximately 6-7 pints.
Note: This delicious relish was introduced to me by my mother-in-law, who was the best cook around. She used this as a side dish at breakfast with eggs or at dinner with roast pork, beef, or barbecued chicken. |
