Using zucchini (courgettes) instead of cucumber for pickles

Zucchini (aka courgettes) can be used interchangeably usually for cucumber in sliced pickle recipes such as bread and butter, sweet mix, etc.

This is a good tip to keep in mind if you are making pickles at a time of the year when cucumbers are very expensive and zucchini are not.

There are also many pickle and relish recipes for other summer squash.

Here are recipes and information on healthycanning.com for canning zucchini / courgettes.

Quote of the day

“Many times, I’ll look at personal websites and see things that can be very unsafe. People don’t quite understand that they might do it once and ‘get away with it’ but they could try it a month later and get sick — or make someone else sick.”

— Dr Elizabeth Andress, NBC News. 13 December 2010.
