Here are some of mine!
Chili Sauce (from my Great-Grandmother Fisk)
12 large tomatoes, 3 green peppers, 6 onions, 1 cup sugar, 2 cups vinegar, salt to taste, small amount of dry mustard.
Peel the tomatoes, then quarter them, chop the green peppers and onions coarsely. Cook slowly until reduced to the thickness you desire. Very good with cold meat. If too sharp tasting, add more veggies.
Kapusta (from Tina Krook)
1 large head of green cabbage, sliced
2 tsp. caraway seeds
1 large can tomatoes
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
1 lb. bacon, chopped (we do vary this by using ham or a polish sausage intead)
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 cup sliced onions
1-1/2 teaspoons salt.
Saute the chopped bacon pieces and onion slices in a large saucepan. When onions turn transparent, add the cabbage, salt, caraway seeds, and brown sugar. Cover tightly and simmer until the cabbage cooks down to about one half the original volume. (Stir occasionally to prevent sticking). Next, add remaining ingredients and continue to simmer over very low heat. This dish is best when allowed to marinate for a day. (it really is better the second day..we usually can't wait and have some the same day we make this!).
