Jalapeño Relish

This is my original recipe for Jalapeño Relish. We eat a lot of Jalapeños in Texas.
I serve this as a condiment.  It's one of my Best of the Best recipes.

Jalapeño Relish:

1 lb. Jalapenos

1 Medium Onion, 1/2 lb.

 4 Medium Carrots, 1/2 lb.

1 Large Red Pepper, stemmed and seeded

3 1/2 C Sugar

2 C Apple Cider Vinegar

1 TBS Mustard Seeds

1 TBS Dill Seeds

Cut Jalapenos in half lengthwise, seed them and julienne into 1/4" strips

Clean and julienne remaining vegetables

Combine Sugar and Vinegar in a stainless steel stockpot over medium heat and cook until the Sugar is dissolved completely.

Add Vegetables and bring to a boil, then simmer for 30 minutes, until it begins to thicken.

Add Spices & continue to simmer for an additional 45 minutes.

Remove

Cool to room temperature

It will continue to thicken as it cools

Drain most of the liquid and store in a covered container in the refrigerator.

Keeps up to two weeks refrigerated

May be canned and stored for future use.

Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
