Have a glut (or just a few) of zucchini? YOU WILL LOVE THIS RECIPE (and my excitement shows through in this video!) I hope you enjoy the recipe ideas I share of ways I enjoy using this recipe at every meal.

Hey! How much pickling spice do you use? It looks like a tbsp in the video, but the blog post only shows the celery seed, mustard seed, dry mustard and cloves for spices.
I absolutely love and appreciate that you take the time to discuss ways to use these foods before diving into the recipe. Thank you so much for your time and dedication * hugs* Here I am, smack dab in the middle of zucchini season!...So I made a batch of this using a combination of champagne vinegar and rice vinegar. Miss 11 got up this morning and popped a heaped spoon of this into a portabello mushroom, added some cooked ground beef and super finely diced pepperoni, topped with cheese and she had herself portabello mushroom pizza for breakfast....YUM!
Hello nerainer ridgeway! Im so happy you find this helpful! It's a question I always had before I'd consider canning something (or more of it) so I started to share a few of the ways I've folded my home canned goods into my meals. YOUR MEAL IDEA SOUNDS AMAZING!!!! I'm already a mushroom fan and I keep dehydrated ground beef on the shelf so I think you just gave me our breakfast idea for this Saturday morning! :)
OMG! I received a box of zucchini. I've never eaten or cooked them before. I tried this recipe. Wowzers! I did not make enough. This is a 10 out of 10.
Hi Donna! Thanks for saying hello! It's lovely to meet you. I'm just a gal who has fallen in love with the empowering and practical skill of food preservation. Whew, this relish is AMAZING!!!
I made this recipe for the first time this year. I finished with 15 jars. I've always wanted to make zucchini relish and was very excited to complete this goal. It is delicious! I'm looking forward to using it this winter. Your suggestions are amazing! I can't wait to try them out! Thanks for sharing!!
Catherine! I’m so glad to hear you were able to make zucchini relish this year! I’ve been so impressed with how it comes out that it’ll definitely be something I’ll keep on my canning project list. It’s just way to easy to add to so many things! Always lovely to see you!!
This is so right on time!! I stepped outside of my comfort zone and purchased a fairly large amount of zucchini from the farmers market. I was just going to make zucchini bread and roast some for meals, but God knew I needed to do something new!! I will be trying out this recipe this week. I thank you for sharing and as always I love your sense of humor!
Hi Saran! Yes, this recipe had me step outside of my comfort zone too and I’m learning that in many instances it’s a good thing. I do very much hope you enjoy it. As Im growing Im confidence on camera because now I can envision names and faces from friends I repeatedly see (like you) more of my personality is coming out and yes, I’m tragically silly! Thanks for letting me know it’s all good!
@FavorKreations you probably cooked all your zucchinis by now BUT you can also make faux apple pie with zucchini!! Just peel it, dice it and cook it on the stove like you would apple with cinnamon and the like. Then pour it into a pie crust and bake it up! 😊
@@amandaribofpalmetto Oh, wow!! Yes, that zucchini is gone, but I have more. This is a stretch to bake it like an apple pie. I have to try this out. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Ms. Angela! Oh now that’s an idea I haven’t tried but ya know what I see that totally working! I will add that as an idea! I wasn’t a relish fan until I made it myself and the taste difference is 1000% better than what you find in the store! It’s always so lovely to see you!!
They are no joke! I’m allll about quick prep next clean up meals and that is one of them! And the chicken sandwich recipe….whoa!!!! So good to see you again SC country girl!
Definitely need more seal lids and I’ll be getting that rack today. And of course I love your quality of videos and the recipe looks amazing. I can’t wait to try it. It’s on my list. I gotta get back into my canning routine.
Hey Celeste! Yes! Keeping a well stocked lid inventory is a constant struggle. Relish is easy more versatile and Han what we give it credit for. This recipe works with fresh or frozen ingredients so Can when you have time! Always good to hear from you!
Thats it, Sharen I officially need to complete an internship at your home! No, I haven’t tried this but what an excellent idea that makes complete sense. Your recommendations are, as always, gold! I will definitely do this moving forward!!
1st time watching your video just wanted to say amazing question Are you a chef and you should be I'm one and you just turned me on to new recipes I love it Keep up the good bless your journey to get off the grid I'm doing the same I need to put out my videos to show my chickens and my vegetables and the things that I've been Kenny.
Hi 👋🏾 Friend! Not a chef at all, just a home cook. I’m humbled you think I am. So glad that you’re considering canning as food preservation; it’s a game changer for sure!
My zucchini was a flop this summer. The vine borers got them. Trying again this fall and so far I’ve pulled out 3 vine borers. Man not giving me a break at all. Peppers are going great though! I’ve got red ones and by surprise I’ve got yellows to. Saving them all by chopping them up and freezing. May have to make this if my zucchini will work out this fall.
Hi Amy! Shucks, I’m so sad to hear about your zucchini. You’ve put time, money and effort in you garden but some seasons the pest pressure takes over. If you can still find your zucchini on sale at a grocer of farmers market (and freeze it like your peppers) this is a delicious recipe to make! So good to see you!
Hi Suzanne! I think you’re going to be just as pleasantly surprised as I was. Thanks for the encouragement I’m so happy to finally have canning friends!
Awesome video. Never tried using this veggie as a relish. Will definitely be trying this next year. We just pulled up all of our summer garden for our fall garden
Hey Mrs. NG! I know you’ll be pleasantly surprised and come to enjoy this in so many ways! I’m so happy you have the canning bug! I do appreciate your encouragement!
Question for you Cassandra. Towards the end you said that approved canning recipes limit jar size to 1/2 pint or pint jars but I notice you are using what looks like the 4 oz jars for this recipe...is there a different processing time for those? I'm new to canning and have the small batch book on order so I can't look at the recipe yet.
Nancy, this recipe is so, so, soooo good. Honey that chicken sandwich is out of this world with this spread! Yes, its a bit tedious cutting up the zucchini, but I just can't do regular relish anymore! Hope you get a chance to try it!
I have a hard time finding 4oz jars which I use a lot of for condiments. Fortunately, I can go to the commissary at Nellis AFB & find a case or 2 on the shelf when I go. They are the perfect sizes for condiments.
Hi Nancy!! Lovely to see you again! I 100% agree with you on 4 ounce jars being hard to find. After years of canning I’m now just moving some some my inventory into this smaller size, which my family has gifted most of my inventory. I can usually find them during the holiday time. Most of my relishes are in pint sized jars. Go AirForce! (As you know I grew up with an airforce dad and married a Navy guy) commissary all the way!
...because...IT'S TRUE! Everyone needs that sandwich in their life :) You'll enjoy my dad's reaction starting at 2:07 in this video-ua-cam.com/video/skvBwao2I-MT/v-deo.htmlhanks for watching, Michelle!
Hi Pip! Welcome to the addictive and delicious world of canning! While not having celery seed won’t compromise the safety of this recipe (that’s the vinegars pet in terms of achieving the right amount of acidity) celery seed totally is a noticeable taste addition I enjoy with this recipe. Does that make sense?
@@BecomingaFarmGirl Yes it does. That's what I thought but thought best to double check. Thank you for your time.... now I gotta work out where I can get celery seeds from

Have you ever mixed it up and used yellow squash with the zucchini? I think next time I’ll try a mix. All the recipes look amazing as usual Cassandra!

You must have a lot of goodies in your pantry! Great stuff and good book recommendation!
I do! My husband looooves this relish! Yes, using a primary source recipe book is a must to ensure your products are safe and shelf stable!

What a great use for excess zucchini! Can't wait to try this one! Thx Cassandra!
You will LOVE it! I’m serious!! It’s worth the chopping and use rice vinegar if you like it slightly on the sweeter side!
Awesome video. Never tried using this veggie as a relish. Will definitely be trying this next year. We just pulled up all of our summer garden for our fall garden
Hey Mrs. NG! I know you’ll be pleasantly surprised and come to enjoy this in so many ways! I’m so happy you have the canning bug! I do appreciate your encouragement!
To be sure your homemade vinegar is 5%, you can use a hydrometer to test it. Wine makers use it to determine the wine strength.

Towards the end you said that approved canning recipes limit jar size to 1/2 pint or pint jars but I notice you are using what looks like the 4 oz jars for this recipe...is there a different processing time for those?

Could you pleeeease tell me what bread you are using
I don’t have celery seed and I’m new to canning… how vital is it?

When you made your pasta dish what kind of cheese did you add? The only thing I can think of it look like it is goat cheese.
Good eye! Yes, it's goat cheese log!
