Sue's Fermented Cucumber Relish
A fermented version of a traditional favorite!
2 cups grated cucumber
2 cups finely diced onion
1/2 cup finely diced red and green sweet peppers
1/2 cup finely diced celery
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon Chia seeds
1/3 cup raw honey
Optional: 1/4 cup whey
Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Gently stir until well combined. Place relish in jar leaving room for expansion. Place lid on jar. Stir relish once or twice daily. Allow to ferment for 2 to 3 days. Place jar in refrigerator where it can be stored for 2 to 3 weeks. Note: A food processor on pulse setting works well to chop the cucumber, onion, peppers and celery into relish consistency.
Happy Fermenting!
