  5. Cook It Down: Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Jar It Up: Sterilize glass jars, pour hot relish into jars leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
  7. Seal and Store: Place lids snugly on the jars, process in a hot water bath for about 10 minutes, then cool completely before storage.
