NEXT RECIPE:  HOT SPICED GRAPE JUICE

HOT DOG RELISH 
1 cup sweet Spanish onion, diced
1 celery stalk, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
3 tablespoons sweet gherkins, minced
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
pinch cayenne pepper

Wash and core peppers, peel onions. Remove strings from celery. Using a food processor, coarsely chop peppers, onions and celery. Drain any excess juice and transfer the chopped mixture to a separate (microwavable) bowl.

Next, process briefly to finely mince the sweet gherkins (food processor doesn't need to be rinsed between ingredients). Transfer chopped garlic and gherkins (sweet cucumber pickles) to same bowl as the chopped pepper mixture.

In food processor, combine peeled garlic cloves, paste, vinegar, Worcestershire, brown sugar, chili powder, mustard and pepper; process until smooth. Stir mixture into chopped ingredients and combine well.

Microwave on high for 1 minute; stir well from the center to the outside. Microwave again for 1 minute. Cool and store in a glass jar at least overnight before use.

Use as a condiment when serving hot dogs or kielbasa.
