Sweet Vidalia Onion Relish

8 large vidalia onions
1/4 c. salt
1 pint apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp pickling spice
1/2 tsp tumeric
1 small jar pimentos

Chop the onions

Add the salt and let it set for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, drain all the liquid off the onions and discard the liquid. I used my hands to squeeze the liquid out of the onions.

Add the rest of the ingredients and cook for 30 minutes.
Put in hot jars and do a 10 minute water bath.
Makes 4 pint jars + a little extra.

Notes: I used my food processor. The onions were nowhere near the same size but I think that gives the relish some character. Also, if you use a plastic or wooden spoon to stir this, just know that the tumeric will discolor it.
