Zucchini Relish

The next time you forget to lock your car and later find the back seat full of zucchini, don’t despair. Instead make this delicious sweet relish!

(Note from Hillbilly Housewife… That is so funny and so true.  Anyone who grows zucchini or has a neighbor, family, or friend who does, knows all about getting rid of their crop.  Desperate measures to be sure, and very funny indeed!)

4 cups ground onions (3 large)
5 T. salt

Let stand overnight.

Drain and rinse in cold water.

2 1/4 Cups vinegar
