Coleslaw Relish
16 cups finely shredded cabbage (about 4 pounds)
4 cups chopped onions (4 large)
1 cup diced sweet green peppers
1 cup diced sweet red peppers
1/3 cup salt
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon celery seed
2 cups white vinegar
Mix vegetables and salt in a large bowl. Cover completely with ice
water and then cover bowl and let stand overnight. Next drain
vegetables well and pack into hot sterilized jars (pint size are the
best). Combine sugar, celery seed and vinegar. Stir frequently till
vinegar boils and pour over cabbage filling to the brim and seal.
Set jars in a cool place where it doesn't matter if they work and
they usually do. Can be used in place of kraut or can he chilled for
a salad. |
