Hello fellow forum members...
I am so glad I found this forum. Thanks in advance for all the reply's and help I may receive.
I would like to make my mothers cucumber and onion relish recipe but the recipe is missing information and unfortunately, she is not here anymore to ask. The recipe calls for 12 cucumbers (peeled and seeded)and 12 onions (peeled) The recipe states to cut both cucumbers and onions in quarters and add salt and let sit overnight. The rest of the recipe is very clear but I am unclear about a couple of things.
The question I would like to ask the experts is,
A- How much salt and what kind of salt?
B- Do I rinse the cucumber and onion mixture after I leave them overnight in the salt?
C- the recipe does not state how many 1 pint jars of relish this would yield, I would assume 12 but not sure how many jars to purchase. Does anyone have any ideas how much this could make?
I would appreciate any help I can get.
Thanks in Advance.
