Zucchini Ginger Jam Recipes

Steps:

• Use zucchini that is young, about 10 inches long.
• Larger zucchini may also be used.
• Wash zucchini and then cut off both ends of zucchini and discard.
• Cut zucchini into quarters (length wise).
• Remove any soft zucchini meat and seeds from the middle and discard.
• Coarsely shred zucchini and add to a cooking pot.
• Add water and ginger to cooking pot; bring to boil and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add crushed pineapple including liquid, sugar and rapid boil for 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat.
• Add lemon and orange powder; stir well to dissolve.
• Fill jars with a lid and store in refrigerator.
• You may also preserve this jam in glass containers and process in the regular way.

Steps:

• Pare the zest from the lemons with a peeler, then juice them, keeping the juice, shells and any pips. Tie the shells and pips into a muslin bag. Put the marrow into a preserving pan with 2 tbsp of the lemon juice, then cook on a medium heat, stirring often, until the pieces are turning translucent and soft but not mushy. Bubble off any juices before stirring in the sugar, the rest of the juice, the zest, ginger and the muslin bag. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Bring to the boil, then simmer for about 10-15 mins or until the marrow has softened completely and the jam has reached setting point (see Tips, below). Pot the jam into warm jars (see below). The flavour of the jam will mature and intensify over the next few months, so tuck it away in a dark, cool place.

Steps:

• Boil the zucchini and sugar for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir continuously so the mixture does not burn.
• Add lemon juice and pineapple and boil 6 minutes together with the boiled zucchini mixture.

• I just cover the jar with a lid and store in the refrigerator.
