At some point in my teens I hand copied my mother’s recipe box, the internet made cards almost obsolete. My recipe box still sits on the shelf in plain sight, I’m slowing digitizing family favorites.<\/p>\n

During my childhood, fall’s overabundance of produce would be sealed in a brine for use during the long winter. Cucumbers and tomatoes would would turn into pickles and relishes.\u00a0 As an adult, I don’t can, pickles and relish never were my favorite.<\/p>\n

Cleaning my recipe box, I was curious when a card for Celery Relish caught my attention. We canned only what we could grow, celery was for a much warmer and longer growing season. My mother was born in the mid thirties, the depression meant people wouldn’t purchase goods transported across the country. I’ll have to ask her what the story is behind this, why she would have a celery relish recipe in her collection. I’ll ask if she had made this in her past, perhaps it was something that caught her attention that she never attempted.<\/p>\n

My husband doesn’t like uncooked celery, I was surprised with his love of celery soup. Perhaps I’ll try this relish recipe, not for me but as a test of his dislike for celery.<\/p>\n
