Zucchini Jam in Slices
Description
Winter preserve made at home. Here is how to make zucchini jam with slices at home, step by step: 1. Wash the zucchini in cold water. 2. Peel the vegetables and cut the zucchini into small slices. 3. Put the zucchini in a bowl. Add sugar to the same bowl. Mix it with the zucchini and let stand for 10–12 hours. During this time, the zucchini should release juice—a lot of juice. 4. When the zucchini has rested, you can start preparing the lemon. Peel off the zest with a knife and cut into small slices. Remove the seeds. 5. Now cook the sugared zucchini. Transfer them to a pot, set over medium heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 minutes. 6. After that, add the finely chopped lemon. 7. Keep the jam on the heat for another 15 minutes. 8. Meanwhile, sterilize the jars you will use for canning the jam, and keep the lids in boiling water for 5 minutes. 9. When the jam is ready, immediately pour it into the jars and seal them. Turn the jars upside down and wait until the jam cools. 10. When the jam has cooled, you can serve it at the table or store it in a cool place. Have a nice day. Store in a cool, dark place.
