Love that tomatoe relish thanks bunches


Just a quick question. What size can of diced tomatoes do you use? This sounds great and I don't want to mess it up! Thanks in advance.

Sorry... the can size should be 411g (14.5oz.) This recipe is enough to make one large jar of relish. (all that good stuff reduces down!) Thanks!


Thanks so much.
