This recipe was extracted from The new Kentucky home cook book (1884) by Maysville (Ky.). Methodist Episcopal Church, South., page 51. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

CHOWCHOW. Take one-half peck of green tomatoes, two dozen large cucumbers, one dozen white onions, one-half dozen green peppers, two roots of horse-radish, all chopped together. Sprinkle a little salt through it, and put into a colander. Let it remain a few hours to drain off the water; season with ground spices — namely, black pepper, mustard, and cloves — to the taste. Put all in a jar, and pour over just enough cold cider vinegar to cover well

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
