10 cups coarsely ground zuchinni

4 ½ cups chopped onion

1 cup rock salt

Mix and stir slightly.  Let stand overnight.  Wash several times.

1 tsp. Dry mustard

2 tsp. Celery seed

2 tsp. Tumeric powder

This recipe was given to me by Lorna Stutz when we lived in California.  It’s a really good relish and tastes a lot like sweet pickle relish.
