Chow-chow is a traditional Southern relish of summer vegetables cooked in a vinegar mixture. Serve with beans, field peas, ham, grilled chicken, or hamburgers. Or try it over grilled turkey bratwurst, with a side of baked chips. This chow-chow will keep in the refrigerator for up to three weeks; it grows tastier with time.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups white vinegar
1 cup sugar
12 black peppercorns
6 whole allspice
1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
4 cups chopped seeded tomato (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 cups chopped green cabbage
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 serrano chile, minced
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute. Add tomato and remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Cook 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool to room temperature; discard cinnamon. Place tomato mixture in a medium bowl; cover and chill.
