Method
1
Wash and core the green sweet peppers, red bell peppers, and green tomatoes, then finely chop or grind all three vegetables along with the white onions until evenly minced.
2
Place the chopped vegetable mixture in a large colander and sprinkle with salt, allowing it to drain for 15-20 minutes to remove excess moisture.
20 minutes
3
Transfer the drained vegetables to a large heavy-bottomed pot and add the white vinegar, sugar, and celery seed, stirring to combine thoroughly.
4
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and the mixture has reduced slightly.
25 minutes
5
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and prepared mustard until smooth, then slowly stir this paste into the simmering vegetable mixture to thicken it evenly.
6
Continue cooking for 5 minutes while stirring constantly to ensure the flour is fully incorporated and the mixture has thickened to a spreadable consistency.
5 minutes
7
Remove the pot from heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, approximately 10-15 minutes.
8
Once cooled, gently fold in the salad dressing until fully combined and the spread reaches a smooth, consistent texture suitable for sandwiches.
9
Transfer the sandwich spread to clean jars, pressing gently to remove air pockets, and refrigerate until ready to use.
