Steps:
- In a large bowl, layer the tomatoes, bell peppers and onion, seasoning each layer with salt as you go. Keep making layers until you run out of vegetables. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate for 4 to 5 hours.
- Pour the vegetables into a colander and rinse off the salt under running water. Put them into a pot with a lid, and stir in the vinegar, brown sugar, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, white sugar, whole cloves, and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, and then simmer over medium heat, uncovered, for about 30 minutes. The tomatoes will start to turn pale.
- When the vegetables are very soft, press them through a sieve, being sure to find all of the cloves and remove them. Cool the sauce and store in the refrigerator.

GREEN TOMATO KETCHUP - QUEBEC STYLE CHOW-CHOW
This is a traditional ketchup from quebec. It's delicious served with meats, but we especially like it with Tortiere. Sometimes fruit (apple or peaches- grated) were added, and that would be added to the saucepan before boiling.

Tips:
- Choose firm, green tomatoes for the best flavor and texture in your ketchup relish.
- To easily peel the tomatoes, score an "X" into the bottom of each tomato and place them in a bowl of boiling water for about 30 seconds. Remove from hot water and immediately place in a bowl of ice water. The skins should slip right off.
- If you don't have time to peel the tomatoes, you can also grate them. Just be sure to remove the core and seeds first.
- Use a food processor or blender to chop the tomatoes, onions, and peppers. This will make the process much quicker and easier.
- Be sure to cook the ketchup relish over low heat so that it doesn't burn. Stir it frequently to prevent sticking.
- Taste the ketchup relish as it cooks and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
- Canning the ketchup relish is a great way to preserve it for later use. Just be sure to follow the instructions carefully to ensure that the relish is properly sealed.
