Relish

I make this relish in the summer time to use in gift baskets at Christmas. Most people bring the jar back and ask for a refill.

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 lbs. Light brown sugar
2 tsp. Tumeric
2 tsp. Black peppe
2 Tbsp. Mustard seeds
42 oz. Cider vinegar
1 cup plus 1 Tbsp. Yellow American mustard
2 lbs. Green cabbage, finely chopped
8 lb. Sweet onions, chopped
1 red pepper chopped
3 green peppers, chopped

Mix together flour, sugar, tumeric, black pepper and mustardseeds. Stir in vinegar slowly to prevent lumps. Add mustard. Place into a pot which will be large enough to hold all ingredients. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring, until mixture begins to thicken. Add cabbage. Cook until it just begins to soften. Add onions and peppers and continue to cook until they also just begin to soften. Stir frequently to prevent scorching.

When the vegetables are ready, you may either put them up in hot, sterilized canning jars, following the directions on the package to seal the tops or you may simply store the relish in the refrigerator. It will keep there in jars for about 2 months.
