Old-Fashioned Corn Relish
Chill: 4 hrs
Ingredients
- 4 ears of fresh corn or one 10-ounce package frozen whole kernel corn (2 cups)
- 1/3 cup julienned carrot
- 1/3 cup sliced green onions or chopped onion
- 1/3 cup chopped red or green sweet pepper
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon bottled hot pepper sauce
Directions
1. Remove husks from fresh ears of corn if using; scrub with a stiff brush to remove silks and rinse. Cut kernels from cob. Cook kernels, covered, in a small amount of boiling salted water for 4 minutes. (Or cook frozen corn according to package directions.) Drain corn. Transfer corn to a medium bowl; stir in carrot, green onions, and sweet pepper. Set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, vinegar, salt, celery seeds, dry mustard and hot pepper sauce. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Carefully pour sugar mixture over corn mixture. Let cool slightly. Cover and chill for at least 4 hours or up to 2 weeks. Serve with a slotted spoon, if you like with pork, beef or poultry. Makes about 3 cup (12, 1/4-cup servings).
