Recipe Notes
SEASONED SECRET
The jalapeno pepper I used was relatively mild so the relish wasn’t too spicy. If you want to turn up the heat, you can keep the seeds, use an additional pepper, or use a spicier pepper like a serrano chile.
CHECK THE FRIDGE
You could use other vegetables with this relish and include corn or carrots. Red onions are also a good swap for white onion.
