Sweet Pickle Relish

“Easy recipe for my first pickle canning.I used 5 1/2 c cucumbers and only 1 1/2 c celery – everything else I kept the same. It smelled great going into the jars.However, it makes 6 1/2 pints, not 6 pints.With only 8.5 cups of veggies, I was wondering where the other 3.5 cups were coming from!Next time I’ll double everything to get the expected volume.I chopped all the veggies in my non-electric Quick Chopper (like a Tupperware Quick Chef) and it was really fast & easy.Thanks for the recipe!”

“I doubled the recipe and left out the green pepper (my family can’t eat them) and added the dill.Great relish that we have been adding to everything!”

“This is my first attempt to make relish. We are overrun by cucumbers from our garden so I thought this would be a great way to use them. It turned out really good. I accidently grabbed a zucchini and chopped it with the cucumbers. It worked fine so the next 2 batches I made I purposely added a little zucchini.”

“This relish recipe is wonderful. I did add and delete a few ingredents. Acualy I took what ever I had left in my garden and used the baise of this recipe. It worked great. I used cucumbers, sweet peppers, bell and bannana, onions, celery and a few hot peppers. Grind everything up in a food pressor. I diced the celery.I didn’t have enough of vinegar and sugar mixture for all that I had processed so I mixed up a little more according to the the recipe ( 3 1/2 cups sugar to 2 cups vinegar), I heated my jars in the dishwasher. I would take out 2 at a time and fill, seal and return to the dish washer. I then ran my sealed jars through the dishwasher cycle under pots and pans. And walked away. Later I returned and removed my cleaned sealed relish all ready to store. The celery in this recipe is so good and crisp. My next batch I’m planning on makeing it a little hotter and adding more diced celery. Thank you DiB’s. This was the relish recipe I had been looking for. Sheila”

“This only made 7 half pints for me, but it is an excellent and simple recipe.Perhaps I pressed out too much moisture?”
