Easy Homemade Dill Pickle Relish
8 pounds pickling cucumbers (big or small!)
1/2 cup non-iodized salt
2 teaspoons tumeric
2 medium onions, finely diced
1/3 cup organic sugar
2 tablespoons dill seed (in a pinch use 5 TBSP dried dill weed)
1 tablespoon mustard seed
4 bay leaves, if desired
4 cups white vinegar
Wash the cucumbers and peel if desired
Finely chop the cucumbers– I used my food processor, be careful not to overprocess.
Put the chopped cucumbers in a large bowl and mix in the salt and turmeric.
Pour water over the cucumbers until they are completely covered and let them sit for 2-3 hours, up to overnight
After the soaking period is complete, drain the cucumbers and rinse them under cool water. I used a fine-mesh sieve for this. Get as much excess liquid out as possible.
Placed the drain cucumbers in a stock pot and add in the chopped onions, sugar, dill, mustard seed, bay leaves, and white vinegar.
Bring this mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
You can test the taste now if you like to see if you need to adjust any seasonings to your taste.
Remove the bay leaves if using them.
Ladle the relish into hot pint jars with 1/4″ headspace. Wipe off rims. Put on the flats and rings of the lids. Only twist to finger tight. Process in a water bath canner for 15 minutes.
