    PICCALILLI


    Source of Recipe


    have no idea--sorry

    Recipe Introduction


    Most piccalillis are made with cucumbers, but East Texans cleverly adapted this recipe to meet their own needs. This is a sweeter relish than some.

    List of Ingredients





    4 quarts green tomatoes, finely chopped (about 20-25 tomatoes)
    1/2 head cabbage, finely chopped
    1/2 cup pickling salt
    enough water to cover the vegetables
    1 quart cider vinegar (4 cups)
    1-1/2 cups brown sugar
    1/2 tablespoon mustard seed
    1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
    1 tablespoon black pepper
    1/8 teaspoon red pepper
    1/2 tablespoon allspice
    1 tablespoon ginger

    Recipe




    Combine the vegetables and salt; cover with water, and soak overnight. Drain and rinse the vegetables.

    Combine the remaining ingredients in a large pot and bring them to a boil; add the drained vegetables and return the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender (about 30 minutes).

    Pack the hot mixture into hot, sterilized pint jars. Cover, and process in a boiling bath for 15 min
