Gramma's Hot Pepper Relish #7555 September 12th, 2004 at 03:04 PM

Anonymous Unregistered A	I said I would try to get this from Gramma, and here it is, copied direct from her email. I'm going to try to make some for gifts. Quote the recipe for pepper relish is very simple. asmuch hot pepper as is needed to make your sweet peppers as hot or mild as you want. I usually get a peck of sweet pepper and about a qt. of hot peppers(itake the seeds out of the hot pepper, with rubber gloves,).. grind in the food grinder and put in a little salt and sugar. put ground peppers and cider vinegar -- eneough to make it juicy into a pot and heat just to boiling point, boil about 3 minutes and put in hot sterile jars and seal immediately. I let it continue to simmer while i am filling the jars. Use small jars as the large ones last too long. LET ME KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT. LOVE GRAMMA
