Recipe(tried): Chili Sauce (Sweet Relish)

Preserving - Other

I think I know what you are looking for. I used to make it with my great-aunt, and it's now a standard in my house! I have had a chance to modernize the original recipe (which I got from my great aunt). I love the smell of it cooking so much, I rarely make more than a quart or two at at time!

CHILI SAUCE
Yields: 1 quart (approximately)

1 ex-large can of crushed tomatoes (or 6 Large ripe tomatoes peeled & chopped)
2/3 cup of frozen chopped green pepper (or 2 large green peppers chopped)
1 cup of frozen chopped onion (or 2 small onions chopped)
3/4 cup CIDER vinegar
1 1/2 cups BROWN SUGAR (if fresh tomatoes, add another 1/2 cup)
1 Tablespoon salt (optional, rarely added)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Place all ingredients into a 3-quart saucepan. Stir. Bring to a boil (take care watching while waiting for the boil, it boils over in a second!) Turn heat down and simmer UNCOVERED for 1 1/2 to 2 hours (or until it is reduced by almost half). If you double the recipe, the simmering time is doubled also. Finish if you want, with hot water process canning, if you are canning by pints. (This recipe makes about 1 quart, which I usually stick in the frig! It also FREEZES great!)
