Cucumber and Onion Relish image

This has been handed down for generations and it is my family's favorite relish. Great with any beef dish or in a sandwich.

Provided by Lynn Mott

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Relish Recipes

Time 8h50m

Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 large cucumbers, grated
5 large onions, grated
2 tablespoons salt, or as needed
3 cups white vinegar
3 cups white sugar
1 cup water
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine cucumbers, onions, and salt together in a colander fitted over a bowl; place in the refrigerator for cucumbers and onions to drain, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Mix vinegar, sugar, water, flour, turmeric, ginger, and black pepper in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thickened, about 5 minutes. Add cucumbers and onions; boil for about 10 more minutes.
  • Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the relish into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for about 15 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
