RED PEPPER AND ONION RELISH

Steps:

• Combine red bell peppers, onions, sugar, vinegar, and salt in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack relish into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

PICKLED PEPPER RELISH

Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Drain pepper mixture; discard bay leaf. Transfer to a serving bowl; stir in vinegar mixture. Serve with a slotted spoon.

PEPPER HASH - AMERICAN PIKLIZ

Steps:

• Combine the vinegars. Add the sugar and salt to the vinegars, and stir until they've dissolved.
• Slice the cabbage as thinly as you can. I do it by hand and it is fairly tedious (this is the reason for the long prep-time in the recipe). Another option is to use the food processor, which results in a dish the consistency of KFC slaw; Be careful - it is really easy to end up with cabbage mush.
• Seed & slice the green pepper, also very thinly.
• If using the scotch bonnets or habaneros, seed & slice those super thinly. These are really spicy peppers (for those unfamiliar); handling them can burn your hands, and the burn can last a few days. I use disposable gloves when I cook with scotch bonnets or habaneros.
• Place the cabbage, green peppers, and all spices and seeds in a large container with a tight-fitting lid. Pour the vinegar mixture over it. Shake.
• The pepper hash can be eaten immediately. The flavor meld well over time. It lasts in the fridge for several weeks.

• Grind or finely chop the remaining amount of peppers using a food grinder or food processor .
• Coarsely chop about half of the onions.
• Add the remaining onions to the grinder or food processor with the peppers.
• In a large bowl, combine the chopped and ground peppers and onions with the salt . Toss to mix thoroughly, cover the mixture with abundant ice, and let stand for 3 hours in the refrigerator.
• Drain and rinse the bell pepper and onion mixture, squeezing the vegetables with your hands to get as much moisture out as possible.
• In a large nonreactive pot, combine the two kinds of vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds, and paprika, if using. Add the well-drained pepper mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 50 to 60 minutes, until thickened. Stir occasionally.
• In a saucepan, bring water to a simmer, turn to low and add the flat lids. Keep the lids in hot water until you're ready to use them.
• Fill a bath canning kettle about half full with water. Add the canning jars to the water and bring to a boil. Carefully remove the jars and drain.
• Ladle the pepper mixture into the hot drained jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. With a damp clean cloth, wipe any spills or drips from the threads and rims of the jars.
• Using tongs, lift lids from the water and let any excess drip off of them. Place the clean jar rims on. Screw on the jar rings firmly but not too tightly.
• Place the filled jars into the canner. The water should be at least 1 inch above the jars. Bring the water to a boil, cover, and boil gently for 10 minutes.
• Carefully, remove the jars to a rack to cool.
• Once cool, check for seals. If any jars did not seal, refrigerate the relish and use it within the next three months. Label the jars with an expiration date of 12 months in the future. Keep in a cool dry place for up to 12 months.
