Title: Chile Relish
Yield: 1 Servings
Categories: Pickles

Ingredients:

4 lb Hot peppers (your choice)
-you could use Jalapeno;
-Serrano, or Cayenne
3 lb Mild or sweet peppers; red
-or green bell peppers; cut
-into strips. but if you
-like hot; use Poblano
-peppers
5 c White vinegar (5% acidity)
1 c Water
2 tb Sugar
4 ts Salt
2 -(up to)
6 Cloves garlic


Wash peppers. Cut small slits in in each hot pepper. Blanch hot peppers in
boiling water for 3 minutes. Cool in ice water. Drain and then flatten the
peppers. Combine remaining ingredients, except sweet peppers, pot and bring
to boil. Boil for 10 minutes. Fill jars with flattened hot peppers and mild
peppers strips. Fill jar to within 1/2" of top of pint jar with vinegar
mixture. If you don't like garlic, only use 2 and remove them before
packing. Remove bubbles, seal, and process with boiling water bath from 10
minutes.

Comments: if you have different kinds of hot peppers, I would suggest that
you keep them segregated when you put them into the pint jars. Each has
its own lovely favor.

If you use poblano or New Mexixo peppers instead of sweet pepper, you might
blanch them as they have a tough outer skin. (Roasting and peeling the
poblanos may make them too soft for the relish.)
