Pepper Hash Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Put peppers and onions through food chopper, or chop in water in blender and drain.
• Place in 6 quart kettle.
• Add salt; cover with boiling water.
• Let stand 10 minutes.
• Drain and discard liquid.
• Add vinegar and sugar to vegs.
• Bring to boil, simmer 20 minutes.
• Ladle into 7 pint jars, pressing down as you pack so liquid covers vegs.
• Wipe jar rim, adjust lids.
• Process in boiling water bath 15 minutes.
• Start to count processing time when water in canner returns to boiling.
• Remove jars.

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.

Steps:

• The peppers could be all one color, the combination just makes it pretty. Wash the peppers and peel the onions. Chop the peppers up in a blender or food processor or by hand. If you use a blender add some water so the pieces will chop freely. Do NOT over chop, you just want them in small pieces, not into mush. Drain the excess water off after chopping. Put the peppers in a large saucepan. Do the same with the onions. Chop and drain. Add the onions to the peppers and mix well. Pour enough boiling water to cover the mixture. Let it stand for about 5 minutes. Do not drain the water off. Add vinegar, sugar and salt. Mix well, bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Pour into canning jars and process in a hot bath for 5 minutes. Be sure to keep one jar out to eat! This is WONDERFUL with any kind of meat.

Steps:

• Combine the vinegars. Add the sugar and salt to the vinegars, and stir until they've dissolved.
• Slice the cabbage as thinly as you can. I do it by hand and it is fairly tedious (this is the reason for the long prep-time in the recipe). Another option is to use the food processor, which results in a dish the consistency of KFC slaw; Be careful - it is really easy to end up with cabbage mush.
• Seed & slice the green pepper, also very thinly.
• If using the scotch bonnets or habaneros, seed & slice those super thinly. These are really spicy peppers (for those unfamiliar); handling them can burn your hands, and the burn can last a few days. I use disposable gloves when I cook with scotch bonnets or habaneros.
• Place the cabbage, green peppers, and all spices and seeds in a large container with a tight-fitting lid. Pour the vinegar mixture over it. Shake.
• The pepper hash can be eaten immediately. The flavor meld well over time. It lasts in the fridge for several weeks.

Steps:

• Heat butter in a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and carrot. Peel potato, and then cut into 1/2-inch dice. Add to pan. Cook until vegetables soften and begin to brown, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium; add bell peppers and mushrooms, and cook until vegetables are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add turkey; saute until cooked through. Sprinkle with flour; stir to combine.
• Add sherry; scrape any browned bits from pan. Cook until most liquid has evaporated. Add stock, salt, black pepper, chile powder, and paprika; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; cook until liquid thickens and reduces by half. Stir in parsley. Serve hot, topped with egg if using.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Holding bell pepper at stem, cut bell pepper into 3 flat pieces. Discard stem end, core and seeds. Repeat with remaining peppers. Place pieces skin side up on broiler proof pan. Broil bell peppers until skin is charred and blackened, about 8 minutes. Transfer bell peppers to plastic bag. Twist bag to seal and let stand until peppers are cool.(Can be made 1 day ahead; chill.)
• Peel peppers and cut into strips. Combine with remaining ingredients in small bowl. Let stand 2 hours at room temperature. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine red bell peppers, onions, sugar, vinegar, and salt in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack relish into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
