Southern Style Chow Chow


 This will be the best Chow Chow you have ever eaten!


Nice for gift giving, very colorful and packed full of flavor!



In a big pot combine:

1 ½ cups sugar
3 cups vinegar
1 tbs. Celery seed
1 tbs mustard seed
½ tsp red hot pepper


Chop by hand (do not grind):

4 white onions
4 green peppers
4 red peppers
1 small cabbage
2 large carrots (optional)


Sprinkle with salt; toss. Allow to stand for about 2 hours. Then put into vinegar mixture and mix well. Allow to cook about 15 minutes after it starts to boil. Pack in sterile jars. Make certain that all of the vegetables are covered by the vinegar mixture in the jars. Pour off excess. Seal jars.


Note: This can be as hot as you like. Use mild pepper instead of hot peppers if you don't like it hot. I wonder what this would taste like with Habanero peppers?
