Number Of Ingredients 7

40-50 cherry peppers (seeds removed and reserved)
1 small onion
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • Prepare cherry peppers by removing stems and seeds and rinsing clean. Reserve some of the seeds to add later.
  • Put cherry peppers, onion, garlic, and desired amount of seeds into a food processor. We used the seeds from 4 peppers. The more seeds you add, the hotter the relish will be. Add seeds to taste. Pulp mixture until finely chopped.
  • Transfer cherry pepper mixture to a large skillet with a tablespoon of olive oil. Set heat to medium. Stir in vinegar and sugar.
  • Cover and cook for 30 minutes. Check to make sure it isn't drying out. If so, add water. Cook uncovered for an additional 30 minutes. The liquid should be mostly cooked away by the end of the hour.
  • Remove from heat. Allow to cool. Store in a glass jar.

Time 1h45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound medium-hot red chile peppers, such as Fresnos or red jalapenos
2 small red or orange bell peppers - stemmed, seeded, ribs removed
½ large onion, peeled and quartered
1 ¼ cups white sugar
¾ cup apple cider vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons pickling salt

Steps:

  • Wearing rubber or latex gloves, trim tops off chiles. Working in batches, pulse chiles, bell peppers, and onion in a food processor until chopped into fine bits, about 1 minute per batch. Transfer to a nonreactive 3-quart pot.
  • Stir sugar, vinegar, and salt into chile mixture and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring more frequently toward end of cooking to prevent scorching, until thickened, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Pour or ladle relish into clean, wide-mouth, half-pint jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe rims clean with a damp paper towel. Let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
  • Apply clean lids. Enjoy immediately, store in fridge 2 to 3 weeks, or freeze up to 6 months.
