Zucchini is one of the most popular vegetables. As a rule, in the spring it is one of the first to appear on our tables, while the zucchini harvest can be harvested until late autumn. The easy digestibility of this product allows you to add it to the menu of even very young children and diversify the diet of those who have digestive problems. It is probably impossible to list all the dishes in which zucchini is used. This includes squash caviar, which is very popular in our country, various casseroles and vegetable stew, zucchini in batter, zucchini pancakes and many, many others delicious dishes. The high content of vitamins makes this vegetable useful for all systems of the human body. The ability for long-term storage allows you to cook zucchini even in winter; this will help strengthen the immune system, because the vitamin C content of zucchini is not inferior to citrus fruits.

There is another way to prepare zucchini - in the form of jam. By chance I was lucky enough to try such a delicacy, and since then every year I make a couple of jars of zucchini jam - to please both my loved ones and surprise my guests. This jam has an incredible taste. For those who try it for the first time, it is difficult to determine what exactly this delicacy is made from. Of course, in order to add piquancy to the jam, you need to add certain ingredients to the zucchini.

There are several ways to make zucchini jam. Each type of zucchini jam has its own fans - some like zucchini jam in pieces, others prefer it in the form of jam. This jam will be an excellent sweet for tea, both on its own and in the company of baked goods.

Recipe for making zucchini jam with lemon slices

Pre-select the zucchini, prepare lemon and sugar. I prefer to use golden squash, but zucchini or regular white squash will work too. Even overgrown zucchini, for which it is quite difficult to find a use, can be used for jam.

Wash the zucchini well, remove the skin and seeds. Cut into cubes approximately 1 by 1 cm. The size of the cubes is not critical; some people like larger pieces. I first cut the zucchini into strips, and then into cubes.

The zucchini has been cut, now you can put it in a bowl in which the jam will be prepared, and cover everything with sugar. Sugar is taken in a 1:1 ratio - for one kilogram of zucchini you need to take one kilogram of sugar.

Now leave everything for a couple of hours so that the zucchini releases its juice.

Meanwhile, sterilize the jars as usual. Liter - 10 minutes, half-liter - 5-7 minutes.

After a few hours, place the pan with the jam on low heat. Simmer the zucchini until it boils. Then let it simmer for a couple of minutes and turn it off. Let the pan cool and repeat the procedure again. Zucchini jam needs to be cooked in several batches.

For the last stage of preparing zucchini jam with lemon, you need, of course, to prepare the lemons. For 1 kilogram of zucchini, 1-2 lemons are enough. You can grind the lemon in a meat grinder; I like it when there are small pieces of lemon in the jam, so I cut it into cubes.

Add lemon to the jam and bring it to a boil. Let it simmer for 15 - 20 minutes.

Pour the prepared zucchini jam with lemon into sterilized jars. We roll up the jars and wrap them to keep warm. The jam is ready.

You can add orange to zucchini jam with lemon, this will make it even tastier. The orange should be added at the same time as the lemon.

The taste of zucchini jam can be further diversified by adding various spices to it during the cooking process, such as cinnamon, vanilla, ginger. Aromatic spices should be added as a final touch to the preparation of zucchini jam. Just don’t overdo it, or you risk ruining the taste.

All kinds of dried fruits - dried apricots, candied fruits - will help to completely disguise the zucchini in the jam. They, just like lemon, need to be added at the end of cooking. For 1 kg of zucchini you will need a glass of dried apricots or candied fruits.

Zucchini goes well with other fruits. They will add uniqueness to any jam - from cherries, apricots, apples. When preparing this jam, take fruit and zucchini in equal proportions; for every kilogram of fruit or zucchini you need a kilogram of sugar. Cook the jam in the standard way. No one will recognize pieces of zucchini soaked in berry juice. In jam it will seem like an exotic fruit.

The nuts in zucchini jam also have an extraordinary taste - they are soaked in jam syrup. By adding forest or walnuts, you will receive not only a tasty, but also a nutritious treat.

I prepared the jam in the standard way - on the stove, but the blessings of civilization allow us to simplify this process. Happy owners of a multicooker can use it to prepare zucchini jam with lemon. Some multicookers have a mode Jam. In this case, all the necessary ingredients must be immediately placed in the bowl and simply press one button, after the signal from your electric assistant, pour the hot jam into sterilized jars.

It doesn’t matter which way, and with what additional goodies you prepare zucchini jam, believe me, the result will pleasantly surprise you. Despite the simplicity of preparation, zucchini jam with lemon can become your favorite jam for the winter and will come in handy for the unexpected arrival of guests.

Zucchini jam is a very tasty dessert that almost everyone likes.

You can add various citrus fruits to it - orange, lemon, which will give the jam a pleasant aroma and original taste.
