Canned zucchini. Canning zucchini for the winter

There is no need to assume that when making preparations for the winter, you are returning to the past, when our mothers and grandmothers rolled up dozens of bottles with tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, zucchini and other gifts collected from the garden. Of course, now everything can be bought in a store, but, you see, nothing can replace homemade products. A good housewife can always vouch for the pieces prepared with her own hands, which cannot be said about “industrial” seaming.

Zucchini is considered a very healthy and tasty vegetable. And how many dishes can be prepared from it... In this article I want to talk specifically about recipes for canning zucchini for the winter, about how to do it and in what way.

Perhaps, zucchini is considered one of the cheapest vegetables in the summer. But this does not mean that you need to fill your pantry shelves with zucchini preparations; you can preserve just a few jars to diversify your home menu in the winter and always be fully prepared if a small feast is planned. Usually a liter jar of zucchini is enough for one day, and the next you can open another jar with equally tasty contents.

Crispy, delicious zucchini will definitely decorate any table. Some people love them even more than lightly salted cucumbers or tomatoes. There are a lot of recipes thanks to which you can salt, marinate, cook caviar, make all sorts of snacks and salads from this wonderful vegetable. Some housewives like to experiment, even making delicious homemade jam.

During preservation, the following spices may be useful to you: bay leaf, horseradish leaves, dill umbrellas, black peppercorns. Zucchini turns out especially tasty if you add parsley, hot peppers, horseradish roots, and chokeberry leaves. Of course, you can use any other supplements you want.

Methods for preserving zucchini

Preservation of zucchini can be carried out both with and without sterilization. The first method is considered more reliable, but the second is much faster and simpler, but no one can guarantee long-term storage of products.

Canning with sterilization

If you choose this method, then first you need to thoroughly wash all the jars. Then place herbs, spices, parsley and currant leaves on the bottom. Wash all available zucchini, cut and place in jars. Next, you need to pour the previously prepared brine (salt, sugar, vinegar and water) into the jars and cover with clean lids. Leave the containers in this state for 10 minutes, and only after that, proceed to rolling. After checking whether the lids fit tightly to the jars, they should be turned over and wrapped in a warm blanket. After your pieces have cooled, you can turn them over and put them in the pantry or cellar.

Preservation without sterilization

The first stage is the same as in the sterilization method - wash the vegetables, chop them, add herbs and put it all in bottles. After which, the zucchini is poured with boiling water and covered with lids. You need to wait like this for 10 minutes. Then you need to drain the water and pour boiling water over the contents again, while adding spices. And only after all the jars are filled with water should they be rolled up and turned over. All preparations are transferred to a warm place and wrapped in a blanket.

Peel the zucchini and cut them into small cubes, fry the zucchini in hot oil until golden brown, stirring constantly so as not to burn. Next, place them in a cauldron or saucepan.

Grate the carrots on a coarse grater, chop the onion, also fry the vegetables separately until golden brown and transfer to a cauldron.

Add tomato paste, garlic, bay leaf, salt, spices to taste and finally 150 grams of boiled water to the vegetables and begin to simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally.

Everything should be stewed for at least an hour, if the liquid becomes too low, add a little, but do not overdo it, the caviar should not be too liquid, but also dry.

If you have a slow cooker, then this caviar can be made in the “Stew” mode.

Let the caviar cool slightly, beat it in a food processor or blender, and cool it in the refrigerator. Caviar is ready to eat.

If you decide to roll it up, put the whipped caviar back into the cauldron and boil it (be careful, it shoots very hot, boil the caviar on low heat for 20-30 minutes, stirring constantly, preferably with rubber gloves).

Sterilize the jars and lids in advance, fill the jars with caviar and sterilize for 1 hour in boiling water. Twist or roll up. Wrap in a blanket until completely cool.

In vain, many housewives, when preparing for the winter, bypass zucchini and look at them as a culinary ingredient.

Undoubtedly, zucchini is delicious fried, stewed and baked. But canned zucchini turns out no worse than cucumbers: dense, with crispy flesh and a pleasant taste.

The peculiarity of zucchini is that they can be combined with any vegetables and, like chameleons, acquire their taste. Therefore, it will not be difficult for the housewife to prepare pickled zucchini to her taste, adding her favorite spices, herbs and vegetables.

Subtleties of cooking

  • Zucchini ripen very quickly, so the main condition is not to miss the harvest time. They are cleaned every 3-4 days. For pickling, use zucchini no more than 20 cm long, with thin skin and a small seed chamber. It is better not to preserve zucchini 30 cm long, but to leave it for cooking.
  • Wash the zucchini, trim the stalk, capturing some of the pulp. The skin of young zucchini is not cut off. But to make pickled zucchini look more attractive, the skin can be peeled off.
  • Small zucchini - greens, the length of which does not exceed 10 cm, are pickled whole, placed vertically in a jar. Other zucchini are cut crosswise into circles 1-2 cm thick.
  • To give a pleasant aroma, herbs and spices are needed. Many of them not only improve the taste of zucchini, but are also an excellent preservative. Zucchini is marinated with such common herbs as dill, parsley, celery, tarragon, horseradish, and basil. Cloves and allspice are also added to the marinade.
  • Zucchini has virtually no acid of its own, so when canning it is necessary to use vinegar, vinegar essence or citric acid. The safety of canned food depends on the amount of acid in the marinade.
  • If the marinade is slightly acidic, then the jars with zucchini must be sterilized. Zucchini in a spicy marinade stores well without sterilization. It is enough to pour boiling marinade over them twice and immediately seal them. But in this case, the container is washed well and then sterilized. When using sterilization or pasteurization, it is better to place zucchini in half-liter or liter jars, which fit into the pan in height. For zucchini that is cooked without sterilization, you need to take two-liter or three-liter jars so that the products in them cool longer, which is a kind of pasteurization.
  • Usually, zucchini is blanched before pickling. If they are preserved without heat treatment, it is recommended to soak the fruits for 1-2 hours in cold water. The same as with cucumbers. This must be done so that the zucchini is saturated with liquid and subsequently does not absorb part of the marinade. If the housewife puts the zucchini in jars without soaking, then after pouring the marinade, she should wait a few minutes and then add the missing amount of marinade. Otherwise, in the cooled jars of zucchini there will be a lot of free space that can fill with air. This is what causes canned food to swell.
  • The amount of marinade required for sliced ​​and whole zucchini differs significantly. Zucchini, cut into circles, are placed in jars very tightly, so there is very little space left for filling. For example, a liter jar will hold only 200-300 ml of marinade.
  • If the zucchini is canned whole, then there is a lot of free space between them in the jar, which needs to be filled with spices and marinade. In this case, proceed in the same way as when pickling cucumbers: take half the volume of the total volume of the jars. For example, for one three-liter jar with whole zucchini you need to take 1.5 liters of filling.
  • To calculate how much marinade is needed in each case, you need to fill a jar with chopped or whole zucchini and fill it with water. Then pour this water into a measuring cup and multiply the amount of water by the number of jars.
