GREEN TOMATOES HOT DOG RELISH RECIPE

Steps:

• With food processor, process green tomatoes, onion, red bell pepper, jalapeno peppers and garlic cloves. You want to have small pieces, but you don't want to liquify.
• Place processed vegetables in cheesecloth and squeeze excess liquid out but you don't need to go completely crazy with this. A little bit of liquid remaining will be okay.
• Pickling Spice Bag: Prepare a small square of cheesecloth and place pickling spices in the center. Tie the top with a small strip of cheesecloth or baker's twine.
• Place vegetables into medium saucepan with pickling spice bag, chile de arbol, vinegar and salt. Place pan on stovetop on medium heat until just boiling then allow to simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
• Stir occasionally. If it looks like the vegetables are starting to stick to the bottom, add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup water and continue simmering.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before placing in refrigerator. Remove spice bag before storing. You can also remove the whole chiles, if you like. Serve as a condiment with hot dogs or hamburgers. Serve as a side relish for meats and baked beans.

GREEN TOMATO RELISH

Steps:

• In a grinder or food processor, coarsely grind tomatoes, red bell peppers, green bell peppers, and onions. (You may need to do this in batches.) Line a large colander with cheesecloth, place in sink or in a large bowl, and pour in tomato mixture to drain for 1 hour.
• In a large, non-aluminum stockpot, combine tomato mixture, celery seed, mustard seed, salt, sugar, and vinegar. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Sterilize enough jars and lids to hold relish (12 one-pint jars, or 6 one-quart jars). Pack relish into sterilized jars, making sure there are no spaces or air pockets. Fill jars all the way to top. Screw on lids.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with boiling water. Carefully lower jars into pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary, until tops of jars are covered by 2 inches of water. Bring water to a full boil, then cover and process for 30 minutes.
• Remove jars from pot and place on cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press top of each lid with finger, ensuring that seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Relish can be stored for up to a year.

GREEN TOMATO RELISH

Steps:

• Wash tomatoes well and cut out the stem scar. Cut tomatoes into large pieces and set aside.
• Chop the bell peppers, onions, and jalapeno into large pieces.
• Place all the vegetables in a food processor, and process until the mixture has the consistency of a relish. Be careful not to over process - you don't want the mixture to turn into mush.
• Soak the vegetables: place the vegetables in a large stainless steel pot or plastic bowl and combine with the half cup of canning salt, mixing well so that the salt dissolves. Add enough water to cover the vegetables, and mix again. Cover the bowl, and let it sit on the counter overnight or for at least 8 hours.
• The next morning, line a counter with lots of paper towels - I usually use 5 layers. You are going to be placing the drained vegetables on these paper towels, so make sure you cover a fairly large space; at least 2 feet by 1 1/2 feet.
• Drain the tomato/onion/pepper mixture and rinse with cold water. Drain well, and then with your hands, which you have just washed in hot water with soap, squeeze the remaining moisture out of the vegetables. You will see that a lot of water still comes out. Place the drained and squeezed vegetables on the paper towels.
• Make a spice bag out of a quadruple layer of cheesecloth, and tie all the spices up in it.
• In a non-reactive pan (i.e., one not made of aluminum) large enough to comfortably hold all the vegetables, combine the vinegar and sugar. Add the spice bag and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Boil for 5 minutes, then add the drained vegetable mixture.
• Bring the relish to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Remove the spice bag and ladle the relish into canning jars, leaving 1/2" headspace. Use a chopstick or other thin, non-metal utensil to run around the sides of the jar to make sure there are no air bubbles left in the jar. Wipe the rims of the jars with damp paper towels to remove any relish which got on the rims or the threads. Place the lids and the bands on the jars, just tightening the bands fingertip tight.
• Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes, then remove and let sit, undisturbed, for at least 12 hours before checking seals. It is important to let them sit undisturbed for 12 hours because the sealing compound on the lids is still cooling and hardening, completing the seal. While the jars cool, you will hear a "plink" type sound from each jar - this is the jars completing the vacuum seal as the final air escapes the jar. After 12 hours have passed, remove the bands and check the lids - press down in the center of the lid. If you cannot push the lid down any further, the jar is sealed. If the lid "gives" a bit, and you can push it down, the jar did not seal. You can either put the band back on the jar, and reprocess it for another 10 minutes, or you can just put it in the fridge and use it within 3 months.
• The relish should sit for at least a month before you use it, so the flavors can combine and improve.
