KATE'S EASY GERMAN CHOW-CHOW SAUERKRAUT RELISH (NO CANNING)
Delicious on top of beans and greens, black-eyed peas, bratwursts, meat or fish. Simmering it low and slow blends flavors. I fell in love with hearty German cuisine while living in Germany. My dad likes this relish so much that he eats it straight by itself.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, combine sauerkraut including canning liquid, bell pepper, onion, celery, vinegar, sugar, and water.
- Bring to a boil, and simmer, uncovered, for 1 to 3 hours (3 hours is best) while occasionally stirring to prevent sticking. Add more water as needed to keep from drying out but not too much because relish should not be watery. Note: do not inhale steam from relish while cooking it because boiling vinegar can take one's breath away and is really painful (I learned this the hard way) lol.
- Can be eaten right way. Tastes even better the next day. Store in refrigerator.

- Be sure to use a clean container when fermenting the sauerkraut relish. This will help to prevent contamination and ensure that the relish ferments properly.
- Ferment the sauerkraut relish in a cool, dark place. This will help to create a more flavorful relish. You can use a fermentation crock or a clean glass jar with a lid.
- Stir the sauerkraut relish once or twice a day during fermentation. This will help to distribute the bacteria and ensure that the relish ferments evenly.
- Taste the sauerkraut relish after 7-10 days of fermentation. It should have a sour, tangy flavor. If it is not sour enough, you can ferment it for longer.
- Once the sauerkraut relish is fermented to your liking, store it in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 6 months.
