Ingredients
Directions
Inspect 6 quart-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until relish is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
Combine bell peppers, onions, sugar, vinegar, jalapeños, pickling spice, and salt in a large saucepan over high heat: bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.
Pack hot pepper mixture into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within ¼ inch of tops. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around insides of jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
Place a rack in the bottom of a canner or large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 2 inches. Bring to a rolling boil, reduce heat to medium, and process at a simmer for 30 minutes.
Remove jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, until cool, about 4 hours. Press centers of lids with a finger to ensure lids do not move up or down. Remove rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area. Refrigerate after opening.
