Instructions: Chop onions and shred cabbage into a large glass or crockery bowl. Do not use a metal bowl. Dissolve salt in 1 quart of water and pour over vegetable mix. Cover and let soak overnight.

In the morning, turn vegetables into a large colander and drain.

In a large pot, dissolve brown sugar in cider vinegar. Mix mustard powder and turmeric with 1/2 cup water; add flour, mixing to make a thick paste with no lumps. Add to vinegar-brown sugar mixture; stir to blend, again making sure there are no lumps. Add celery and mustard seed and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to prevent sticking. The mixture will thicken as it comes to a boil. When it boils, add cabbage and onion and continue to boil and stir for 5 minutes. Mixture is very pungent.

Put in sterile jars, close with sterile lids and put in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes to seal.
