Sweet Pickle Relish By The Jar - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups pickling cucumbers, finely chopped (2 medium)
1 cup onion, finely chopped (2 medium)

2/3 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon celery seed (optional)

Preparation

In a large non-metal bowl, combine cucumbers, onions, and peppers; toss with salt, then cover with water. Let stand, covered, for two hours.
Drain vegetables in a colander and rinse with cold water; drain again.
In a large pot, combine sugar, vinegar, mustard seeds, celery seeds (if using), and turmeric.
Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
Add vegetables and return to boiling; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until most of the liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes.
