Grandma'S Old-Fashioned Sweet Relish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 quarts ground cucumbers
    1 quart ground onion
    4 cups ice cubes
    5 tablespoons sea salt
    6 cups vinegar
    6 cups sugar
    2 teaspoons turmeric
    1 1/2 teaspoons celery seeds
    3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    2 tablespoons mustard seeds
Preparation
    Combine cukes, onions, ice and salt.
    Let stand for 2 hours,.
    then drain.
    Mix the next 6 ingredients in a large pot.
    Bring to a boil, add ground cuke mixture, and cook for 20 minutes, or until it begins to thicken.
    While still hot, seal in sterilized jars.
    As far as preparation time, I use Grandma's old hand grinder, so I'm sure it would be much faster with a motorized food grinder.
