Adjika from zucchini is finger licking good

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make adjika from zucchini is finger-licking good? Prepare the indicated products. Rinse the vegetables in water, peel the garlic cloves and rinse. The volume of ingredients is calculated for 600 ml of sauce.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the bell peppers from the seeds, cut the tails off the zucchini, and cut out the cores from the tomatoes. Rinse the peeled vegetables thoroughly, cut into portions and pass through a meat grinder using a fine or large mesh attachment. If desired, before chopping the tomatoes, you can scald them in boiling water for about 5-6 minutes and peel them.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour the chopped vegetable mass into a cauldron or saucepan, place the container on the stove and bring the mass to a boil. Then reduce the heat to minimum, cover the container with a lid so that the mass does not splatter everything around, simmer for about 25-30 minutes until a third of the liquid has evaporated.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pass the peeled garlic cloves through a press, add ground black pepper, ground red pepper, and salt to taste. Pour in 9% vinegar and vegetable oil. It is better not to try the hot sauce, as you can burn your tongue - the mass contains a large amount of hot red pepper. It can be replaced with fresh red pepper, but before adding it to the mixture, you need to remove the seeds from the pod.

5. STEP 5

   

   Simmer the adjika on minimal heat for another 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the mass does not stick to the bottom. At this time, scald the jars and lids with boiling water, planning to seal the adjika for the winter. Since the sauce will taste very strong, it is best to preserve it in small portions - in 250-350 ml jars.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the boiling sauce into hot jars, immediately seal them with lids or tighten the lids with a canning key. Turn upside down and let cool.

7. STEP 7

   

   You can store adjika both in the pantry, because it contains vinegar, and in the cellar, basement, etc.
