CLASSIC SWEET HOT DOG RELISH

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large, nonreactive bowl, combine cucumbers, onion, bell pepper, and salt. Mix well. If this seems like a lot of salt, don't worry: Most of it is rinsed off later. The salt is there to draw water out of the vegetables, a step that results in better texture and flavor in the finished relish.
• Cover the bowl of vegetables and leave in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
• Transfer vegetables to a fine mesh sieve or strainer and let drain for a couple of minutes. Rinse well with cool water and drain again. Get out even more of the liquid by squeezing hard with clean hands or by pressing vegetables against sieve with the back of a wooden spoon.
• Whisk cornstarch into cool or room temperature vinegar in a medium saucepan. Stir in sugar, celery seed, mustard seeds, mustard, turmeric, nutmeg, and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often to help dissolve sugar and prevent lumps.
• Once syrup is boiling and becoming translucent, add vegetables. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
• Scoop hot dog relish into clean, hot canning jars leaving 1/2 inch of headspace. Screw on the lids. If canning, process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Serve as desired.

CHEESY HOT DOGS WITH PICKLE-PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Make the relish: Combine the vinegar, sugar, celery seeds and mustard seeds in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook until syrupy, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; let cool slightly. Stir in the dill pickles, yellow peppers, pimientos, pickled jalapenos and chives. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight. Season with salt.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Grill the hot dogs, turning, until well marked, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, open the buns and toast cut-side down on the grill. Brush the insides of the buns with the melted butter and arrange the cheese inside; cover to melt, 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Drain the relish. Serve the hot dogs on the cheesy buns; top with ketchup, mustard and the relish.

RELISH

Steps:

• Process the cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers in the food processor to create a coarse grind.
• Pour the ground veggies into a large pot and add the water and salt to the pot, stirring well to combine.
• Cover and let sit overnight or for at least 12 hours.
• The next day, drain the veggies well and return them to the pot.
• Add the vinegar, turmeric, celery seed, mustard seed and sugar.
• Stir everything together very well to combine and bring the mixture to a boil for at least 1/2 hour, stirring regularly.
• Dissolve the cornstarch in a tablespoon or so of water and add it to the mixture.
• Stir it in well, and reduce the heat. Continue to cook the relish for another 15 minutes or so or until it thickens slightly.
• Sterilize your jars and lids according to proper canning procedures.
• Add the mixture to the jars leaving about 1/2 inch of room at the top of each jar. Add the lids.
• Process the filled jars in a pot of boiling water for at least 5 minutes (you may need a rack at the bottom of the pot to prevent the jars from sitting on the bottom of the pot where they may crack or break).
• When the jars have finished processing, remove them to a wooden board to cool completely. Any lids that have not popped down (indicating a proper seal) should be stored in the fridge and consumed within 1.5 months.
• Properly sealed jars can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dark place for up to one year.
