Made this over the last two days. Is awesome! I will definitely make again. This recipe kinda reminds me of the corn relish I make and I bet corn would taste good in this as well. I also think that maybe an 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of cayenne would make it good as well. -
This relish is fabulous! I've been making it almost like this for years and it's a family favourite. I play with the amounts of spices a little but the biggest change I make is in the amount of nutmeg - I reduce it to 1/4 tsp because I'm not fond of it. Excellent relish, which we use for sausage, hamburgers, and sandwiches. Thank you, muddy! -
Wonderful recipe. Fairly easy to make, a food processor would definitely speed the grating process up. All in all, everyone LOVED it! -
this is the very same recipe my family uses this is a super recipe my whole family loves it. -
I didn't let this sit overnight just a few hours.I also didn't grate it I did it in my food processor.Turned out great very good. Will make again.
