Recipe(tried): Mimi'sgreen tomato relish

Misc.

This was my grandmother's green tomato relish and I know her mother made it too. My sister and I are getting ready to pass to the fifth generation. We always hope to have a jar left for Thanksgiving. It is good on hamburgers, pot roast etc.

Use an old fashioned hand grinder and grind together the following:

1 dozen red peppers(sweet not hot)
1 dozen green peppers
6 medium sweet onions
4 small hot peppers
2 dozen green tomatoes

Shred and chop finely 1 head of cabbage. Soak it in water for about 10 minutes and drain and sqeeze in dish towel until dry.

Mix all together in a large bowl and add:

1 T. celery seed
1 T. mustard seed
1 tsp uniodized salt
1 quart of white vinegar
2 cups sugar
Mix and place in clean jars. We do not process this but eat it within the next month or so. We did "can" it one year but I think it may lose a little texture from the heat.
