     4    Medium-sized vidalia onions;


          -chopped fine


     2 c  (about half a medium head)


          -shredded cabbage


   1/4 c  Salt


     1 qt Water


   1/2 c  Brown sugar


     2 c  Cider vinegar


     1 tb Dried mustard powder


   1/8 tb Turmeric


   1/2 c  Water


   1/4 c  All-purpose flour


     2 ts Celery seed


     2 ts Mustard seed






 Chop onions and shred cabbage into a large glass or crockery bowl. Do not


 use a metal bowl. Dissolve salt in 1 quart of water and pour over vegetable


 mix. Cover and let soak overnight.


 


 In the morning, turn vegetables into a large colander and drain.


 


 In a large pot, dissolve brown sugar in cider vinegar. Mix mustard powder


 and turmeric with 1/2 cup water; add flour, mixing to make a thick paste


 with no lumps. Add to vinegar-brown sugar mixture; stir to blend, again


 making sure there are no lumps. Add celery and mustard seed and bring to a


 boil over medium-high heat, stirring to prevent sticking. The mixture will


 thicken as it comes to a boil. When it boils, add cabbage and onion and


 continue to boil and stir for 5 minutes. Mixture is very pungent. Put in


 sterile jars, close with sterile lids and put in a boiling water bath for


 15 minutes to seal. Makes about 1 1/2 quarts.
