Green Tomato Chow Chow

I am sadden today because I finished my jar of Green Tomato Chow Chow. I know, I had never heard of it either but...once you try it all other relishes go out the window.  Every year a dear friend of mine puts some up and shares it with us, I try to make the jar last and I did pretty good with this one but...it is now gone.  I will have to go to her home with my empty canning jar in my hands along with any book I have borrowed recently and try to get another jar.

  1. It is seriously tasty stuff. I think I put it on just about everything when you let me have last year's jar. Yum.

    Also, I bet if you ask nice she'd let you help/teach you how next year. If only to get out of being your green tomato crack supplier.

  2. Looks delicious. I'm positive, I've never had Green Tomato Chow2. Combo, sweet, sour? I do love pickled vegetables tho my favorite is Indian lime pickle.

  3. It is sweet and vinegary at the same time. I have to admit I was afraid to try it the first time and gave the small jar to J. This year I tasted it and I am hooked. I put it on hot dogs, crackers and yesterday I used the last little bit to put into some tartar sauce I was making. When we were at her house last year on Christmas eve she was sending us back with a second jar and I forgot it...dern!
    I bet she would teach me how to make it, she is a honest to goodness great southern home cook! There is nothing better than dinner at her house.
