Hot and Sweet Corn Relish image

This is the corn relish recipe I use which I've put together from several different ones. We like our relish spicy, but you can always tone down the heat by cutting back on the Jalepenos and leaving out the red pepper flakes. Serve it chilled. It's always a hit and it looks so pretty on the shelf, too! Since it has a vinegar...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

9 c corn kernals, either fresh or thawed frozen (2 two lb bags if using frozen)
4 c onions, vidalia, chopped
2 c red and green bell peppers, chopped
1 c finely chopped jalapeno peppers (adjust for personal preference)
3 c apple cider vinegar (minimum 5% acidity)
1 1/2 c sugar
1 Tbsp kosher salt
2 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp celery seed
1 tsp tumeric
2 Tbsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Sterilize jars and keep warm. Immerse lids and rings in very hot water and leave them there until you're ready to use them.
  • 2. Combine corn, onions, bell peppers, hot peppers, vinegar, sugar, salt, mustard, celery seed, turmeric and red pepper flakes (if using) in a large, non-reactive pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes stirring occasionally.
  • 3. Fill the hot jars with the relish leaving 1" head space, run a small spatula around the inside of the jars to remove air bubbles and wipe rims and jar threads with a damp paper towel. Please lids on jars and tighten rings to fingertip tightness.
  • 4. Lower jars on a rack in the canner using a jar lifter. Make sure the jars are covered with at least 3-4 inches of water. Return to a boil and boil gently for 15 minutes.
  • 5. Remove jars and place on a clean dish towel out of direct sunlight. Let rest for 24 hours. Test jars for seal and refrigerate any unsealed jars. Store sealed jars in a dark cupboard for up to one year.

This recipe was a fail. The relish was too runny and didn't have much flavor.

This relish is the perfect balance of sweet and heat. I love it on grilled chicken and fish.

Not a big fan. The relish was too sweet for my taste and the texture was a bit mushy.

This corn relish was an absolute delight! The combination of sweet corn, tangy vinegar, and a hint of spice was perfect. It added a lovely pop of flavor to my burgers and hot dogs.
