Squash caviar with mayonnaise through a meat grinder

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 3 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make squash caviar with mayonnaise through a meat grinder? Prepare all ingredients according to the list. From the specified amount of ingredients you will get about 6 half liter jars of caviar.

2. STEP 2

   

   The weight of zucchini is taken into account without peel and seeds. Therefore, first wash and peel the zucchini, and then weigh it. Then the taste will be the most balanced, exactly as it should be. If the zucchini is young and the seeds are small and tender, you don’t have to remove them, it depends on the quality of the vegetables.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the zucchini into sticks or cubes of such a size that they fit into the hole in your meat grinder.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the onion and wash. Cut the onion into pieces so that it is convenient to load it into the meat grinder.

5. STEP 5

   

   Mince the vegetables once or twice, as desired. If you grind twice, the finished caviar will be more tender and lighter.

6. STEP 6

   

   Transfer the vegetable mixture to a thick-bottomed saucepan or saucepan. Add tomato paste, vegetable oil and mayonnaise. We use any vegetable oil, but only odorless; sunflower or corn is best. Mayonnaise should be full fat, 67 percent is ideal.

7. STEP 7

   

   Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring, until the liquid evaporates and becomes thick, for one hour.

8. STEP 8

   

   Season with salt, ground black pepper, add bay leaf and sugar. Boil for about two more hours. First of all, focus on the consistency; the liquid should evaporate and the finished caviar should be thick and not run off a spoon.

9. STEP 9

   

   Rinse the jars for sealing the caviar well and sterilize them in the oven or microwave. Place freshly prepared hot caviar into jars, roll up the lids, and cover with a blanket until it cools completely.

10. STEP 10

    

    Do not invert the jars onto their lids; the caviar will stain them and the shelf life may be shortened. Store prepared squash caviar with mayonnaise in a cool place.

11. STEP 11

    

    Serve instead of a salad, as an appetizer in addition to the main menu, or as a sandwich with bread, which is ideal for a quick snack. Bon appetit!

Great recipe! The squash caviar with mayonnaise came out amazingly tasty and tender through a meat grinder. I make zucchini caviar every year, so I decided to try it with mayonnaise this time. The preparation takes a long time, but it's worth it. I prepared it from 5 kg of zucchini, increasing the amount of ingredients using the site’s calculator, which is very convenient. I got 14 0.5 l jars. My zucchini was mature, so I weighed it after peeling and removing seeds. I passed the zucchini and onions through the meat grinder once, using an attachment with small holes. I added mayonnaise 67% according to the author’s advice, tomato paste, and odorless sunflower oil. When cooking over low heat, stir often to prevent it from burning. Added sugar, salt and pepper. I didn’t put the lavrushka for my own reasons. During the second hour of cooking, the caviar began to shoot, so I covered the pan with a special mesh to prevent splashes of fat. The moisture evaporated well, the consistency was perfect, and the taste was gorgeous. I rolled the caviar into sterile jars and did not turn it over, as recommended by the author. I really liked the recipe for squash caviar with mayonnaise through a meat grinder. The caviar turned out to be soft, tender, homogeneous, beautiful, you want more and more))) The caviar is incredibly tasty according to this recipe and much better than store-bought. I advise everyone to try it! Many thanks to the author!
