  • “Perfect! Boy this is great–easy to make & the flavor is a mix of sweet with a kick of HOT! I used a tea ball for the spices, worked well. Great on grilled meats & would add pizzaz to leftover roast pork! Thanks for a goodie Di.”

  • “This is wonderful.I gave a jar to my oldest son, and he admits that after topping four hotdogs with it, he just started eating it with a spoon! I will be making this again.Thank you for a wonderful recipe.”

  • “Thank you! I’ve been looking for a jalapeno relish recipe and this is fantastic! I subsituted bell peppers for the cucumbers as I didn’t want a “pickle” relish. Since I don’t can, I froze what I wasn’t going to use in small freezer containers…hopefully it will work. I’m going to make a dip with some of this as well as tartar sauce. I’m also interested in what else you can use this with besides on dogs & burgers. Hopefully someone will post some ideas!”

  • “My second time to make this and I haven’t reviewed it!It is better than excellent.I added a little grated carrot and a red bell pepper for visual interest.I also seeded some of the peppers and left the seeds in some. We love it on sandwiches. Thank you, DiB.”
