Perfect for topping hot dogs, burgers, sandwiches, or grilled meats, this relish is both vegan and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 cup red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 cup green bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 cup yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeño, finely minced (seeds removed for mild heat)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced

Pickling Liquid

  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Combine the diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper, yellow onion, minced jalapeño, and minced garlic in a medium bowl. Set this mixture aside while you prepare the pickling liquid.
  2. Make Pickling Liquid: In a small saucepan, add apple cider vinegar, water, sugar, salt, mustard seeds, celery seeds, and turmeric. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Simmer Spices: Reduce the heat and simmer the pickling liquid for 2 minutes to allow the spices to bloom and release their flavors fully.
  4. Combine Relish and Pickling Liquid: Immediately pour the hot pickling liquid over the vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat all the vegetables evenly with the pickling solution.
  5. Cool and Store: Allow the relish to cool to room temperature. Transfer it to a clean jar with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to let the flavors meld beautifully.
  6. Serve: Use this relish as a tangy topping for hot dogs, burgers, sandwiches, or grilled meats for extra zest and crunch.

Notes

  • This relish keeps well for up to 2 weeks when stored in the refrigerator.
  • For a sweeter relish, increase the sugar quantity to 3/4 cup.
  • If you prefer more heat, add an additional jalapeño or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
