6 cups chopped green tomatoes
1-1/2 cups chopped sweet red peppers
1-1/2 cups chopped green peppers
2-1/4 cups chopped onions
7-1/2 cups chopped cabbage
1/2 cup canning or pickling salt
3 tbsp whole mixed pickling spice
4-1/2 cups vinegar (5%)
3 cups brown sugar

PROCEDURE: Wash, chop, and combine vegetables with 1/2

Drain and press in a clean white cloth to remove all
possible liquid. Tie spices loosely in a spice bag and
add to combined vinegar and brown sugar and heat to a
boil in a sauce pan. Add vegetables and boil gently 30
minutes or until the volume of the mixture is reduced by
one-half. Remove spice bag. Fill hot sterile jars (see
