Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet and Tangy Corn Relish.
Step 1
Begin by carefully cutting the corn kernels from the cobs, then use a large spoon to scrape the cobs, extracting every last drop of sweet corn juice.
Step 2
In a spacious saucepan, combine the freshly cut corn and its flavorful juices with diced tomatoes, vibrant green and red bell peppers, onion, and cucumber for a colorful medley.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, celery seed, and mustard seed until well blended.
Step 4
Pour this tangy mixture over the vegetable medley in the saucepan.
Step 5
Bring the concoction to a lively boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for an hour, stirring occasionally to meld the flavors.
Step 6
Once the relish has thickened and the aromas fill your kitchen, carefully pack it into hot, sterilized jars, leaving about a quarter-inch of headspace at the top.
Step 7
Use a clean knife or thin spatula to gently release any trapped air bubbles.
Step 8
Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp paper towel to ensure a clean seal, then place sterilized lids on top and secure the rings tightly.
Step 9
Allow the jars to cool completely before refrigerating them until you're ready to enjoy this delightful relish.
Step 10
This vibrant blend not only brightens up your meals but also brings a taste of summer to your table all year round.
