- 4 cups Vinegar
- 2 cups Water
- 6 cups Sugar
- 1 cup Cleargel, Regular Not Instant
- 2 cups Water
- 1 Tablespoon Celery Seed
- 4 Tablespoons Mustard, Ground
- 2 Tablespoons Turmeric, Ground
- 1 Tablespoon Mustard Seed
- Get your water bath canner ready and jars hot (I had ready 6 quart jars and a couple of pint jars as I wasn't sure how much my recipe would make. )
- Cut all the veggies and put in a large stainless steel pot, glass bowl, or crock. Sprinkle 1 cup kosher salt over veggies and then cover with 4 quarts of water or enough to cover veggies. Let soak for 6 hours or more. Drain and rinse with cold water.
- Bring to boil 4 cups of vinegar, 2 cups of water and 6 cups of sugar in large stainless steel pot.
- Mix 1 cup of cleargel (or flour) with 2 cups of water, 1 TBS celery seed, 4 TBS of mustard powder, 2 TBS Turmeric and 1 TBS mustard seed. Blend well and then add to vinegar mixture. Let thicken then add veggies and bring to a rolling boil.
- Ladle into your hot prepared jars and leave 1/4" head space. Wipe rims clean and put on lids and rings.
- Process for 20 minutes after boiling starts. For higher elevations, add 10 minutes. I'm in Northern Nevada so I processed for 30 minutes total. Hook canning rack over the pots rim and let sit for 5 minutes before pulling jars out for cooling.
