Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped sweet green pickle relish, tomato paste, minced roasted red peppers with garlic, white vinegar, white sugar, liquid smoke flavoring, ground black pepper, and ground cinnamon. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Thoroughly mix all ingredients until a uniform, vibrant red color is achieved. Ensure no streaks of tomato paste remain. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a touch more sugar for extra sweetness, vinegar for tanginess, or liquid smoke for a deeper smoky flavor. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Spoon the relish mixture into a clean, airtight glass jar or container. Press down gently to remove any air pockets. (1 minute)

05

Step

Seal the jar tightly and store in the refrigerator. Allow the relish to chill for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (2+ hours chilling)

For a smoother relish, pulse the pickle relish and roasted red peppers in a food processor before mixing.
Adjust the amount of liquid smoke to your preference. Start with 6 drops and add more to taste for a smokier flavor.
This relish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

    I was skeptical about the cinnamon, but it adds a really nice depth of flavor. Will definitely make again!

    So easy to make and the flavor is spot on. I added a little bit of cayenne pepper for a kick.
