Cucumber Relish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 peck cucumbers
    12 onions
    4 green peppers
    canning salt
    12 whole cloves
    1 qt. vinegar
    5 c. sugar
    2 Tbsp. turmeric
    1 Tbsp. whole mustard seed
Preparation
    Grind cucumbers, onions and green peppers.
    Add a handful of canning salt.
    Set overnight at room temperature.
    Drain well. Place in large pan.
    Add remaining ingredients, placing whole cloves in a small cloth and tie the opening off.
    (A bread closure works well).
    Cook 30 minutes just at the simmer point.
    Remove the cloth containing the whole cloves and can in hot, sterilized jars.
    If jars, lids and relish are all boiling hot there is no need to process in a canner or pressure canner.
