Sweet Pickle Relish

Peel, deseed, and finely chop the cucumbers. Dice the onions. Deseed, wash, and dice the peppers. Sprinkle everything in a glass or porcelain bowl with 70g of salt, cover with water, and let it steep for two hours. Drain the vegetable stock, squeezing out as much liquid as possible. Mix the sugar with apple cider vinegar and spices and bring to a boil. Add the vegetables and simmer for 10 minutes. Fill boiled, sterile jars with the mixture, leaving at least 1cm empty at the top. Screw on the lids and simmer in a water bath for 10 minutes. This makes enough for about 10 400ml jars.
