This one was just to use up excess zucchinni (everyone has this issue I am sure). The first batch was used up quickly so I made another. Now every one who trys my Spicy Zucchinni Relish wants a jar! I may have found my true calling! It is pretty good if I say so my self!

How To Make spicy zucchinni relish

  • 1
    I use my wonderful Salad King to shread the zucchinni and then chop the peppers and onions finely. Toss veggies with canning salt in a large zip lock bag or glass bowl and cover tight. Refrigerate over night.

    The next day, rinse veggies with cold water in a colander (do this twice). Squeeze out all juices. Place veggies and all remaining ingredents in a non-aluminum pot to a boil. Boil thirty minutes.

    Pour into 4-6 hot pint canning jars and seal. Process in water bath for 15 minutes. Let cool and seal. If your lids don't pop, refierate them and use relish within one month.
