Yield: 1 Recipe
| Measure | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 6 mediums | Tomatoes, quartered |
| 1 medium | Onion, sliced |
| 1 medium | Green pepper, cut in strips |
| ¼ cup | Water |
| 1½ tablespoon | Sugar |
| 1½ teaspoon | Celery salt |
| 1½ teaspoon | Mustard seeds |
| 1 large | Cucumber, sliced |
| ¾ cup | Cider vinegar |
| ¼ teaspoon | Salt |
| ½ teaspoon | Cayenne pepper |
| ⅛ teaspoon | Black pepper |
In a large bowl combine tomatoes, onion, green pepper, and cucumber.
In a small saucepan combine vinegar, water, sugar, celery salt, mustard seeds, salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper. Bring to a boil, boil 1 minute. Pour hot vinegar mixture over tomato mixture.
Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight to blend flavors. Serve with slotted spoon.
My note: This is HOT. Even Daryl said it was too hot! I think biting into those mustard seeds really gets ya. I'd cut the cayenne in half and probably the mustard seeds too. It's very pretty to look at, and was a nice tomato dish to have in the dead of winter. We served it with a fairly bland dish made from just some short grain brown rice and some peas, carrots, and corn thrown in at the end (frozen).
