This fourth dimension of year, in that place is an abundance of fresh zucchini to brand Bread as well as Butter pickle bask out of it. It is absolutely delicious as well as nosotros purpose it inwards everything from tuna fish, to spud salad, to hot dogs, you lot advert it.........NO ONE has EVER guessed it is made of zucchini, it only tastes similar the BEST breadstuff as well as butter pickles.
12 cups unpeeled zucchini (chopped small)
3 cups sweetness onion (chopped small)1 loving cup celery (chopped small)
2 large blood-red bell peppers (chopped small)
2 cups peeled carrots (chopped small)
1 loving cup pickling tabular array salt (see of import note)
3 cups white vinegar
3 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons turmeric
2 teaspoons DRY mustard powder
1 tablespoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon dark pepper
1 tablespoon corn starch
Wash as well as dry the vegetables earlier cutting them (the exclusively 1 you lot should tegument is the carrot). Coarsely chop the vegetables, as well as thence pose them inwards the nutrient processor (2 or 3 cups at a time) as well as pulse them a few times to become them modest plenty for a skillful bask (but non also small). The chop size should await similar the side yesteryear side photo.
Measure the vegetables AFTER you lot chop them inwards the nutrient processor.
Mix the modest chopped vegetables as well as 1 loving cup of pickling salt. Place this mixture (covered) inwards refrigerator overnight (The tabular array salt volition depict excess wet out of the veggies).
IMPORTANT NOTE: After the vegetables accept chilled overnight, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you lot rinse the tabular array salt off of them. I rinse the chopped veggies iii times (in modest batches).
Whatever method you lot select to rinse the tabular array salt off, only brand certain you lot rinse, rinse, rinse then crush every bit much H2O out of the chopped veggies every bit you lot can(I purpose my salad spinner). Set aside.
In a large, non-aluminum, pot, mix the vinegar, sugar, celery seed, spices as well as corn starch. Bring to a boil (to dissolve the sugar). Add all of the rinsed vegetables to the pot and convey BACK to a boil. Once it is boiling well, plow oestrus to medium depression as well as gently boil everything for twenty minutes, stirring every 5 minutes or so.
While the bask is simmering, sterilize seven pint jars as well as seven (two piece) screw on lids. I practise this yesteryear putting the jars through a hot bike inwards my dishwasher (but I don't pose the lids inwards there). Keep the jars inwards the (unopened) hot dishwasher afterward the final cycle.
For the lids, I only launder them alongside hot soapy water, rinse them good as well as and thence pour boiling H2O over them inwards a large saucepan which I give-up the ghost along warm on a burner.
Also, piece the bask is simmering, convey your hot H2O bathroom to a boil, here's how: Place a rack on the bottom of a large stock pot (or something to give-up the ghost along the jars upwards off of the bottom of the pan) as well as fill upwards the pot alongside H2O (water should last deep plenty to comprehend the jars yesteryear 2". Bring to sum boil.
Now that your bask has boiled for twenty minutes, take it from the oestrus as well as house it inwards the hot jars, leaving 1/4" infinite at the direct house of the jars (make certain in that place are no air pockets inwards the relish). Wipe the rims of the jars alongside a clean, hot, wet kitchen towel as well as screw on the two-piece lids fairly tight. Lower the jars into the already boiling H2O as well as give-up the ghost along them inwards there 10 minutes for one-half pint jars as well as xv minutes for pint jars.
Remove from boiling H2O as well as allow cool to room temperature on your kitchen counter. As they cool on your counter, you lot volition listen the lids "pop" when they brand the right seal. If they don't "pop", only give-up the ghost along them inwards the fridge.
NOTE: Do non purpose regular tabular array table salt for this recipe because the anti-caking agents inwards tabular array table salt crusade the bask to discolor. If you lot don't accept pickling salt, the side yesteryear side best matter to purpose is kosher tabular array salt (but I highly recommend pickling salt).
NOTE: The recipe calls for 12 cups of chopped upwards zucchini. I accept institute that if I am a loving cup brusk of zucchini, I only add together an extra loving cup of chopped carrots. Works well.
NOTE: This recipe makes seven pints of relish.
ENJOY !!!
