Рецепт заготовки на зиму из кабачков

I went to the dacha last weekend. A lot of vegetables and fruits ripened in the garden, and I and my family spent half a day harvesting. After that, the family stayed in nature, and I had to go to my grandmother.

She asked me to bring her 15 kg of zucchini. At first I wondered why she was doing so much, but when my grandmother reminded me of the treat she had given me in the winter, I knew what she was going to cook. This is one of my favorite desserts!

Squash jam



I really like zucchini and used to think that from this healthy vegetable you can prepare many dishes: fried, stewed and baked for snacks, lunch and dinner.

Who would have thought zucchini could be a great dessert! Moreover, they taste like pineapple. And the juice they let in will be sweeter than nectar.

Editorial "Site" offers you an unusual, but incredibly delicious zucchini with citrus. This fragrant dish will appeal to everyone, and the simplicity of cooking will pleasantly surprise even those who do not like to mess around in the kitchen for a long time.

The ingredients

• 1kg zucchini
• 900g sugar
• 2 oranges
• 1 lemon

Preparation

1. Wash and then clean the zucchini. Then remove the seeds and cut the zucchini in small cubes.
   
   
   
2. Go to citrus preparation. Wash the oranges and lemon and also cut them with cubes. For ease of work, you can pass citrus fruits through a meat grinder.
   
   
   
   
   
3. In a large bowl, mix zucchini and citrus fruits and fill them with sugar. Leave to brew for 5 hours, preferably all night. So the ingredients will become sweeter and let the juice.
   
   
   
4. Put the container with zucchini and citrus fruits on the fire and bringing to a boil, boil for 4 minutes.
   
   
   
5. Cool the mass and boil it again. Repeat cooking 3 times.

Editorial Board
Zucchini is one of the few vegetables that is better to eat immature. For this jam, you should choose zucchini of small size weighing 100-200 g and a length of 12-20 cm. The skin should be smooth and thin, without damage, dents and scratches.



Note that large zucchini with thick skin, a large number of seeds inside and fibrous flesh are oversung. The zucchini shell is very tender, so the slightest scratches and damage lead to rapid deterioration of the vegetable. Keep zucchini. should be unwashed in the refrigerator in a plastic bag for no more than one week.


Enjoying this jam in the winter, you will feel a piece of summer in every spoon. It tastes very unusual, and thanks to the citrus aroma it simply cannot be conveyed in words. And those who like to bother, can cut zucchini in the shape of circles. They will look more like canned pineapples.

Be sure to try to make this jam, and you will be pleasantly surprised. I'm running to close the jars.
