I put up 12 pints of this recipe recently. It is SOOOOOOOOOO good! I used 1 1/2 cups sugar and used the celery option. But, I just realized after looking at it that I forgot the garlic listed in the celery option. RATS! Maybe next time. I found this recipe in Ball Blue Book of Preserving.
Corn Relish
Yield: about 6 pints
2 quarts cut cooked corn (about 9 large ears or 18 small ears, learned this the hard way after shucking 18 large ears!) 
1 quart chopped cabbage (about 1 small head.....if you're from Texas, think VERY SMALL.) 
1 cup chopped onion (about 1 medium.....just chop 1 cup of onion, don't guess.)
1 cup chopped sweet green peppers (about 2 small.....again, measure.)
1 cup chopped sweet red peppers (about 2 small....measure.)
1 to 2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon celery seed
1 tablespoon mustard seed
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon turmeric
1 quart vinegar
1 cup water
Combine all ingredients in a large saucepot. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Pack hot relish into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Adjust two-piece caps. Process 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner.
Recipe Variation: To make relish without cabbage, substitute 1 cup chopped celery for cabbage. Add 1 clove garlic, minced. Follow directions in recipe.
NOTE: I didn't water bath mine. After 20 minutes simmer, I packed it into the jars, got the air out, tightened the caps, and turned them upside down on hot pot holders. This sealed every jar. I do this with my tomatoes, too.
