Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 pieces fresh jalapenos
- 1 medium white onion
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Wash and dry the jalapenos. Trim the stems, then finely dice the jalapenos. If you prefer a milder relish, remove the seeds and membranes before dicing.
Peel and finely dice the white onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, granulated sugar, water, and salt. Stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add the diced jalapenos, onion, and garlic to the saucepan. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and the liquid thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the relish to cool to room temperature.
Transfer the relish to a clean, airtight jar or container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Serve your Jalapeno Relish as a topping for burgers, hot dogs, or tacos, or mix it into dips and spreads for an extra kick of flavor!
