A delightful and easy-to-make recipe that transforms zucchini into a sweet and tangy treat resembling pineapple.
Combine the zucchini, sugar, lemon juice, and pineapple extract in a large saucepan.
Stir the mixture well to ensure the sugar dissolves evenly.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Keep an eye on the mixture to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes until the zucchini softens and absorbs the flavors.
Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Fill sterilized jars with the hot mixture, leaving ½-inch headspace.
Use a funnel for easier filling and to avoid spills.
Seal the jars and process them in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes (adjust time for altitude if necessary).
Ensure the jars are fully submerged in the boiling water for proper sealing.
