5 cups corn, freshly cut from the cob and drained

5 cups fresh tomatoes, chopped

1 cup cucumber, unpeeled and chopped

1-1/2 cups onion, chopped

1 cup green pepper, chopped

3/4 cup sugar

2/3 cup cider vinegar

1 teaspoon mustard seed

1 teaspoon salt

Mix all the ingredients in a large pot and bring them to a hard boil. Remove the pot from the heat immediately.

Ladle the relish into hot, sterilized pint jars, cover, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
