I just threw together some pickled pepper relish. I haven't tried it yet, but I based it on some of my pickle recipes that have done me good. I found some so called mini sweet peppers at the grocery store today, so decided to use those.
Anyway...here's the recipe. And I didn't think to take process pictures, but one of the finished product.
Hot Pepper Relish
1 C Apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 C Water
1/2 C Sugar
2 T Salt
3 T Mustard seeds
1 Lemon, juiced
1 Lime, juiced
1/2 of an Onion
4 Garlic cloves
8 7-Pot peppers
1 # Sweet Peppers
All the vegetables were roughly diced, then put into the food processor for a few pulses.
Everything else, except for the citrus juice, was simmered for about 5 minutes, with the citrus being added at the very end. Then poured over the chopped peppers and onions.
You can obviously simplify this if you want....take away the mustard seeds and citrus, then add a bit more vinegar. Or complicate it more, if that's your thing. I actually added a pinch of saffron and turmeric to this one.
Anyway...I'm sure it's delicious. And I'll post after I start eating it, but I think it'll be better if I let it sit for at least a week or two.
Oh yeah, and these sweet peppers were almost all yellow/orange, so you really know when you're getting the 7-Pot!
