Unknownchef86'S Green Tomato Or Zucchini Relish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 quarts green tomatoes (see note) or 8 quarts zucchini, ground (see note)
    1 cup salt
    1 medium head of cabbage, ground (see note)
    6 green bell peppers, ground (see note)
    5 red bell peppers, ground (see note)
    6 medium onions, ground (see note)
    3 quarts white vinegar
    8 cups sugar
    2 tablespoons celery seeds
    2 tablespoons mustard seeds
    1 teaspoon ground cloves
Preparation
    Note: Grind vegetables with the coarsest blade on a meat grinder (hand-crank or otherwise); you can usually buy the hand-crank kind fairly cheaply at a thrift store.
    Mix ground tomato or zucchini and salt, then pour into a cloth bag. Hang and let drain, overnight, over a non-metal container.
    In the morning, remove tomato/zucchini to a large, non-reactive (non-aluminum) pot and add remaining ingredients.
    Bring to a boil; simmer slowly for 20 minutes.
    Pour into sterilized pints and seal.
    Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
