Ingredients:
- 3 cups grated green pepper (about 2 large)
- 3 cups grated pickling cucumber (6 to 8 cucumbers)
- 1 cup grated onion (about 1 medium)
- 2 cups white vinegar, divided use
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon pickling salt
- 1 tablespoon mustard seed
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
Combine prepared green pepper, cucumber, and onion in a large stainless steel (or enamel-coated) pot.

Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have cooked down and the liquid is reduced by about 1/3, about 30 minutes.
Drain the vegetables, discard liquid, and return vegetables to the pot.
Add remaining vinegar, sugar, and the spices. Bring to a simmer and cook for five minutes, then remove pot from heat.
Fill jars, wipe rims, apply lids and rings. Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes (starting time when pot returns to a boil). Remove jars from pot and let cool on a towel-lined countertop. read more words!
