Time 1h35m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound baby zucchini, halved or quartered lengthwise
Kosher salt
1/2 cup lightly packed dill sprigs
1 cup distilled white vinegar, plus more if needed
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
3 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
1 jalapeño or serrano pepper, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, toss zucchini with 2 tablespoons salt; let stand 20 minutes. Cover with ice and water, weighting down with a plate, if necessary, to keep zucchini fully submerged. Let stand 1 hour. Drain in a colander; rinse to remove excess salt. Pack zucchini and dill into a 4-cup-capacity or two 2-cup-capacity jars.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar; 2/3 cup water; mustard, cumin, and celery seeds; garlic; jalapeño; sugar; and 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Carefully pour into jar with zucchini and dill. Top with more vinegar, if necessary. (Liquid should fully submerge zucchini mixture and reach about 1/2 inch from top.) Let cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 month or try canning with our helpful instructions.

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cucumber (unpeeled)
1/4 cup onion
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 shakes Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Using the small grate on your cheese box, grate one cucumber (unpeeled).Then grate 1/4 cup onion.

  • Add next 8 ingredients and mix it all together. Cover and put in the fridge to set about 8 hours. If you don't have 8 hours, it's okay. This dip can be made the night before.
  • Slice some zucchini on the diagonal. Not only does this give you pretty cuts, it also gives you a little more per slice.
  • In three separate bowls put some flour mixed with seasoned salt and dill weed. In the next, whisk one egg. In the last bowl, put some panko bread crumbs.
  • Drop some zucchini slices in the flour. Coat boat sides well.Then drop into the egg bowl. Make sure egg gets on all sides.Then put the zucchini in the panko. Coat well.Repeat until all slices are breaded.
  • Heat some oil over medium heat until it comes to about 360*. Carefully put the slices 4-5 at a time in the oil. After 3 or so minutes, turn the zucchini over.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini. Look for small to medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that are large, as they tend to be more watery and less flavorful.
  • Grate the zucchini. To ensure a smooth dip, grate the zucchini using the large holes of a box grater. You can also use a food processor fitted with a grating blade.
  • Salt the zucchini. Salting the zucchini helps to draw out excess moisture, resulting in a thicker, more flavorful dip. Be sure to rinse the zucchini thoroughly after salting to remove any excess salt.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, and chives, add a burst of flavor to the dip. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the zucchini. Overcooked zucchini will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook the zucchini just until it is tender-crisp, about 2-3 minutes.

Conclusion:

Dilly zucchini dip is a light and refreshing dip that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be served with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, chips, and vegetables. If you are looking for a healthy and flavorful dip to enjoy this summer, give dilly zucchini dip a try.
