Ingredients
Ingredients
- FOR THE RELISH:
- 1 medium onion, coarsely diced
- 2 dill pickles, coarsely diced
- 2 Hatch/Anaheim chiles, stemmed, optionally seeded, coarsely diced
- 1 Tablespoon Casa M Spice Co® Ace Kickstart®
- 1/4 cup yellow mustard
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup mustard seeds soaked in apple cider vinegar overnight (optional)
Method
-
01
Dice onion, pickles, and chiles
8 minKeep your pieces uniform and on the larger side—you want texture in this relish, not mush, and bigger chunks won't break down into paste when you mix and let it sit overnight.
-
02
Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl
3 minFold everything together until the mustards and spices coat every piece evenly, then taste it—this is your chance to dial in more Ace Kickstart or vinegar before it mellows overnight.
-
03
Refrigerate to develop flavor
24h mOptional but recommended for best flavor.
From Mike's Notebook
Soak the mustard seeds overnight even if you skip them—the vinegar softens their bite and sweetens the brine.
Dice the pickles and chiles coarse; fine chop releases too much liquid and waters down the relish.
Make this two days ahead if you can—the Ace Kickstart and mustard flavors need 24 hours to stop fighting each other.
