Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 pounds zucchinni-finely chopped or shreaded
  • 2 medium frying peppers or ancho chilies, seeded and chopped
  • 4 large white onions finely chopped
  • 5 tablespoons canning salt
  • 2 1/4 cups cider vinegar

How To Make spicy zucchinni relish

  • Step 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.
  • Step 2
    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.
  • Step 3
    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.
