Sweet CORN RELISH | MAKE this TODAY

I love making pickles. In addition, this time of the year is great for pickling because of the abundance of fresh, local produce. The local farmer's market had a great sale on corn. So, I purchased more than needed. But no worries because having extra fresh corn gives me the perfect excuse to make SWEET CORN RELISH. In today's recipe, I will show you how to make this homemade relish and preserve it for eating at a later date. I will also show you how to make relish for immediate eating...relish for the refrigerator.

I love Chow-Chow!

[@grandmabessieshouse]

I literally spent all day yesterday chopping green tomatoes to make Southern Green Tomato Chow Chow Relish. It is tomato season in Southeast Louisiana and I am already getting request from family and friends for this delicious condiment. If you like this Sweet Corn Relish recipe, check out the Green Tomato Relish Chow Chow video on this channel. It takes a little time and patience to make but it is worth it. Thanks for watching.

@@grandmabessieshouse - Thank you!

This video was totally useless, because it didn’t provide timing for the corn. It was substandard as far as giving directions.

[@grandmabessieshouse]

Sorry you did not enjoy this recipe. As stated in the video, the recipe (directions) & its ingredients are in the video's description. This includes the timing to cook corn. The video's description also mentions to check the manufacturer instructions for canning water bath times due to not knowing the exact size or brand of canning jar(s) each individual uses while trying out this recipe. Different jars and sizes use different water bath times depending on what company makes the jar(s). To keep the videos short and so folks trying out the recipe do not have to go to a separate site to get the recipe, I post the long form directions to each recipe in each video description. I hope this helps if you are trying this recipe.
