Squash Relish - CDKitchen.com

serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  over 5 hrs

ingredients

10 cups chopped yellow and zucchini squash
4 cups chopped onions
2 green bell peppers, chopped
1 small jar pimento peppers
2 tablespoons salt
2 1/4 cups cider vinegar
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon cornstarch, optional

directions

Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl and pour ice water over them and let stand overnight. Drain, squeezing out moisture.

Combine vinegar, sugar, spices, mustard and cornstarch, if desired. Put drained vegetables in a large stockpot along with vinegar mixture. Stir and simmer over medium-low heat for 30 minutes.

Spoon mixture into hot sterilized canning jars and process according to manufacturers' instructions (or simmer jars in a water bath for 5 minutes). It can be eaten in 2 weeks.

cook's notes

"The colors of this relish are extremely appealing, with variegated shades of yellow, green and red suspended in the pickling liquid. It would make a great summer hostess gift (and is super strategy for how to get rid of bumper crops of zucchini and yellow squash). The nutmeg and turmeric give this relish a slightly sweet, exotic flavor, which marries surprisingly well with burgers or tofu. I might add a teaspoon of mustard seed to the pickling mixture for a little bit of kick."
