KATE'S EASY GERMAN CHOW-CHOW SAUERKRAUT RELISH (NO CANNING)

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine sauerkraut including canning liquid, bell pepper, onion, celery, vinegar, sugar, and water.
• Bring to a boil, and simmer, uncovered, for 1 to 3 hours (3 hours is best) while occasionally stirring to prevent sticking. Add more water as needed to keep from drying out but not too much because relish should not be watery.
