CORN RELISH
Ingredients
2 quarts fresh corn kernels
1 large cabbage, chopped
7 cups chopped celery
4 fresh green cayenne peppers, seeded and chopped (optional)
4 fresh red cayenne peppers, seeded and chopped (optional)
6-1/2 cups chopped red bell peppers
6-1/2 cups chopped green bell peppers
1/2 cup salt
1 (2-ounce) box of dry mustard
2 pounds sugar
1/2 tablespoon turmeric
2 quarts while distilled vinegar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Steps
Combine all of the ingredients in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat and mix well. Bring to a boil, and cook for one hour, stirring often. Pack in hot sterilized pint-size canning jars, leaving a one-fourth inch space at the top of each jar. Wipe the jar rims with a clean, damp cloth, fit them with hot lids, and tightly screw on the metal rings. Process in a bath of boiling water for 10 minutes (the water should cover the jars by about one inch), cool on a wire rack, then store in a cool, dark place.
Makes about 7 pints.
