Steps:
- Set up a large pot with a steamer insert and steam the franks until warm, about 5 minutes. When the franks are almost done, place the buns on top of the franks to steam, 1 to 2 minutes. Place the franks in the buns and top each with some of the onions, 2 peppers, some Homemade Bread and Butter Relish and slather with mustard. To serve, top the franks with a handful of Hand Cut Fries with Celery Salt, wrap each frank in foil and let steam, 2 to 3 minutes, before eating. Eat on the towel-lined trunk of a car.
- Combine the pickles, peppers and sugar in a bowl and mix well. Serve.
- Fill a 6-quart heavy pot or Dutch oven two-thirds of the way full with oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until a deep-fat thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Cut the potatoes lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick sticks. Fry the potatoes in batches, until golden brown, 8 minutes per batch. Transfer the potatoes with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with celery salt and serve immediately.

MOM'S HOMEMADE SWEET HOT DOG RELISH

Use in potato or macaroni salad dressing, ham bbqs, sloppy joes, baked beans...yummmmm, gives just that extra layer of flavor but nobody seems to be able to figure what makes it that good! We make this...

Steps:
- 1. Wash and cut vegetables in large chunks. Old method uses a hand grinder, but I do it now in my KA food processor. Grind all ingredients and place in a large stainless steel kettle. Add 1/2 cup table salt; cover and let stand overnight. Then, rinse well in strainer/colander. Return to kettle.
- 2. Combine all syrup ingredients in glass or stainless steel bowl, then add to rinsed vegetables in kettle. Heat to almost boiling, then let simmer 3 minutes.
- 3. Wash pint jars in hot, soapy water to sterilize. Boil lids & rings in hot water. Put relish into hot sterile jars, leave about 1" headspace and wipe rims well. Place lids and rings on, making sure they are tightly sealed. Set on rack or towels, let cool. As they seal, you will hear lids popping. Store in cool place.
- 4. We always at least double this recipe, sometimes triple it if all vegetables are available. Can also put in quart jars, if desired.

SWEET RELISH WITH CUCUMBERS AND CAULIFLOWER RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- Roughly chop the cucumbers, cauliflower, onions and peppers into chunks. Pulse them through a food processor until they are a fine dice with a few larger pieces to add some texture. Place all the veggies into a large bowl and sprinkle the salt over the top. Add the boiling water, cover the bowl and let it sit on the counter for a couple of hours or even overnight is fine. Drain the mixture well, continuing to press the residual liquid through the strainer until very little remains. Place the mixture into a large pot and add the vinegar, sugar, mustard seed, celery seed and turmeric. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often. Boil gently for 30 minutes. Make a slurry of the cornstarch and water and stir it into the boiling relish. Cook for another minute or two until it thickens slightly. Pour into HOT sterilized pint jars and seal. I personally do not do the boiling water bath method, I simply ensure my jars are really hot when I fill them with the hot mixture and I seal them tightly. Within a couple of hours of resting on the counter each pint jar's seal "popped" so I know they are well sealed before storing. (For added assurance against spoilage you may choose to process the jars by placing them in a pot and cover the jars with water. Bring the water to a boil and process for 10 minutes.) The relish tastes great right away, but the flavors really blend together well as time goes by. We usually open the first jar after a month or so. Enjoy!

GRILLED HOT DOGS WITH SWEET-HOT RELISH
Don't stop at hot dogs: The sweet, spicy, puckery relish is great on burgers, sausages, and chicken breasts, too.

Steps:
- Combine cornichons and liquid, onion, and peppers. Let relish sit 30 minutes, or refrigerate up to 2 hours.
- Stir together mayonnaise and mustard, and refrigerate if not using immediately.
- Slice baguettes horizontally but not all the way through so they open like a book (or a hot dog bun). Cut each baguette into pieces the same length as hot dogs.
- Heat grill to medium-high, and brush grates with oil. Grill bread, cut side down, until just lightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes, then wrap in foil to keep warm. Grill hot dogs until lightly charred on all sides and warmed through, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Spread inside of bread with mayonnaise mixture, and place a hot dog in each. Spoon relish over top.
Tips:
- Use a grater with large holes to quickly and easily grate the vegetables.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the vegetables by hand.
- Cutting the bell peppers into small pieces will help them to cook evenly.
- Add the mustard seeds, celery seeds, and turmeric powder to the relish for an extra burst of flavor.
- Store the relish in a clean glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
With its vibrant colors and delicious sweet and spicy flavor, this homemade sweet hot dog relish is a perfect condiment for any summer cookout or potluck. It's also a great way to use up extra vegetables from your garden. So next time you're looking for a unique and flavorful relish, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
