Jarring Zucchini - 72723

Cleanliness is next to Godliness when jarring zucchini - or beer for that matter.

Have I ever mentioned the time I went to the Campbell’s soup factory near Laurinburg, NC? I went there when I was invited to submit a proposal. Unfortunately, for me I didn’t get that job, and that is kind of unusual, but I suspect it was because they just “needed 3 bids” and their minds were already made up. Regardless, I don’t mind because I enjoyed the time I got to spend there at the facility to acquire the necessary info needed to submit a proposal proper.

I’ll tell you this - that place was clean - as it ought to have been….because any “cook” knows cleanliness is next to godliness when it comes to preserving sustenance for the future.

So, the images below show the process of jarring that was the outcome of lessons learned. I don’t know if what was jarred is going to be “as good” as what we had before, but I do think it will be edible and most likely tasty as well.

Image 1: So above is the zucchini, along with an onion picked today (I really thought it was a different type of onion - but now I know), zucchini “mush” from the middle separated and returned to the yard, some peppers from the effing grocery store, but one pepper from the garden and other ingredients used, but maybe not all of them.

This is what it looked like when it was being heated up.

This is a little “artistry” of zucchini innards (not used) plus some sea salt.

This is 2/3rd of the zucchini used in the above jarring images, some crops most of which were not used, some jars that were jarred previously, and a “presser” I just couldn’t help myself to display - this is a nice presser - oh boy - you wouldn’t believe the pressing force it can deliver.

~~~~~~~~~

While I’ve been having “fun” doing this jarring, we also have a cabinet project going on - me and the love of my life - my wife. And by the way, she is the one who basically learned the jarring recipe - so credit due is given.

Now me let you ask you this - do you think you could get more cabinet doors on the table steady as I did in the image above?

Lastly, the final product jarred along with some tomatoes picked today not quite ripe, some peaches on the windowsill and a lot of love in the home.

Peace all good readers - it is time for peace!

That’s what I think - what you think?
