For those who prefer a savoury relish, this tastes like chopped dill pickles.

Ingredients

  • 4 lb pickling cucumbers
  • 1/4 cup pickling salt
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 2 cups white vinegar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced   
  • 1 tbsp dill, seeds
  • 2 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1-1/2 cups finely chopped onions

Preparation

Scrub cucumbers and trim off ends; cut into chunks. In batches in food processor, pulse cucumbers 8 to 10 times to cut into 1/8- to 1/4-inch (3 to 5 mm) pieces. In large bowl, sprinkle cucumbers with salt and turmeric. Stir in 1 cup (250 mL) cold water; let stand for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Drain in large sieve. Rinse under cold water; drain again, pressing out moisture.

In Dutch oven, bring vinegar, sugar, garlic, dillseeds and mustard seeds to boil. Add cucumber mixture and onions; return to boil, stirring often. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 30 minutes.

Fill hot 1-cup (250 mL) canning jars, leaving 1/2-inch (1 cm) headspace. Cover with prepared lids. Screw on bands until resistance is met; increase to fingertip tight. Boil in boiling water canner for 10 minutes.
