  1. Anyone make this often?

    Got a few recipes and can't decide which one to try. Looking for
    something not exceptionally sweet; other than that open to suggestions.

    TIA

    Made right, it's not too sweet. I love the stuff, but for some reason, it's
    never in my top 100 things to make at home. I have no idea why.

    I like this one--raw and tasting slightly of curry:

    *<----------------------------------
    4 ears of corn
    1 red bell pepper, sliced and seeded
    4 green onions, thinly sliced
    ¾ cup white wine vinegar
    ½ cup water
    ¼ cup sugar
    3 Tbsp. kosher salt
    4 cloves garlic
    2 tsp. curry powder

    Cut each ear of corn in half and, using a sharp knife, cut the kernels
    from the ears as close to the core as possible. Discard ears and put
    kernels in a large non-reactive bowl.

    Place the bell pepper in the food processor and pulse until finely
    chopped; add to the corn with the green onions.

    In a small saucepan over medium, heat the vinegar, water, sugar, salt,
    garlic and curry powder. Bring to a boil and reduce for 5 minutes.

    Pour this over the raw corn, allow to cool slightly, then refrigerate
    until ready to use.

    *<----------------------------------

    I don't make or eat corn relish, but my dad loves my gramma's
    recipe. Unfortunately, as I was going through her handwriten
    cookbooks, I found two of them, and I don't know which was her
    usual:

    Best Corn Relish

    10 12 ears of corn
    1 C. chopped sweet red pepper
    1 C. chopped green pepper
    1 C. chopped celery
    1-1/4 C. chopped onion
    1-1/2 C sugar
    1-1/2 T. mustard seed
    1 T. celery seed
    1 qt. white vinegar
    3/4 C water
    1-1/2 tsp. dry mustard
    1 T. salt
    1/2 tsp tumeric

    Boil corn for 3 minutes, dip in cold water, drain and cut
    kernels from cob. Combine all ingredients, and boil 20
    minutes, serve hot.

    Corn Relish

    2 qts. raw corn cut from cob
    2-1/2 C. chopped onion
    3/4 C. chopped sweet red pepper
    3/4 C. chopped green pepper

    2 T. celery seed
    3/4 C firmly packed brown sugar
    1/2 C. corn syrup, light or dark
    2 T. salt
    1 tsp tumeric
    1 T mustard seed
    3 C. cider vinegar

    Combine all ingredients it a deep kettle & mix well. Cover; bring
    to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    Ladle into hot jars seal. Set jars on wire rack in deep kettle with
    boiling water to cover tops of jars. Cover, boil 30 minutes counting

    I like this recipe. Not too much sugar in it, as good corn is sweet enough.
    Thanks for posting.

    That looks really salty.

    TIA

    I used to make it a lot.

    I think this is the recipe I used. It's from _Aunt Freddy's Pantry_ by Lee
    Bailey

    20 ears corn
    3/4 cup salt
    2 1/2 cups sugar
    one 1.12 oz tin dry mustard
    1 tablespoon turmeric
    2 quarts white vinegar
    1 medium cabbage, sliced (about 3 cups)
    1 1/2 cups chopped green bell pepper
    1 1/2 cups chopped sweet red pepper
    6 large onions, chopped
    1 4-oz jar pimientos, drained and chopped
    4 red hot peppers, seeded and chopped
    6 to 8 celery ribs, chopped (about 2 cups)

    Cut the corn off the cobs. In a very large pot, combine everything but the
    vegetables and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add all of the vegetables,
    reduce the heat, and simmer for 45 minutes.

    Pack into hot, clean jars and fill with the liquid, leaving 1/4 inch
    headspace, and seal. Process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. (Or
    sterilize the jars if you don't want to process it.) Makes about 10 pints.

    It wasn't one of those very sweet relishes. I probably left out the
    pimiento, since I don't like it and there's red pepper in the recipe anyway.

    The amount of salt called for raised my eyebrows when I saw it too, but it
    doesn't *taste* too salty.
