Zucchini jam with lemon and orange

A tasty, tender and aromatic delicacy for the winter! I have personally known the taste of zucchini jam since childhood. Every summer, my mother packed up several jars of this delicacy for the winter. This delicate jam with a citrus aroma tastes more like canned pineapple.

You can also cut the orange and lemon into cubes, first remove the zest, which can also be used when making jam. When cooked, these slices, like zucchini, also become transparent.

Amber jam! Incredibly tasty, aromatic, appetizing! Zucchini jam with lemon and orange is a pretty tasty preparation! I have been cooking for two autumns in a row and this time I also want to cook. I have adapted to adding citrus fruits to zucchini - the taste only benefits from this! And I also want to note that I prefer the homogeneous consistency of jam, so I put everything through a meat grinder. Great recipe, thank you so much!
