Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium red bell peppers
- 3 medium green bell peppers
- 2 medium yellow bell peppers
- 2 medium onions
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Wash the red, green, and yellow bell peppers thoroughly. Remove the stems, seeds, and membranes, then finely dice the peppers.
Peel the onions, then finely dice them as well.
In a large saucepan, combine the diced peppers and onions, white vinegar, sugar, salt, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for about 30-35 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking. The peppers and onions should soften, and the liquid should reduce slightly to create a relish-like consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the pepper relish cool to room temperature.
Transfer the pepper relish to sterilized jars or airtight containers. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Serve as a condiment for sandwiches, burgers, grilled meats, or as a topping for crackers and cheese.
