Cook corn on cobs submerged in boiling water for 5 minutes.

Plunge into cold water to stop cooking and preserve color.

Drain, then cut from cobs.

Mix gently with other vegetables.

Combine sugar, vinegar, water, and spices (making sure sugar is dissolved).

Pour over vegetables and simmer for 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender but not mushy.

Spoon into hot, sterilized jars.
