Spicy Zucchini Pickles (pint)

Spicy Zucchini Pickles from Stephanie at Canning in the Chaos in Flower Mound, Texas. Crisp zucchini gets the pickle treatment with a little extra heat, creating a bright, tangy, spicy jar that belongs anywhere you would normally reach for a pickle—and probably a few places you would not.

Sourcing & practices

Stephanie makes each batch by hand using simple ingredients and traditional preserving techniques. Her focus is on bold, balanced flavors and pantry staples that taste distinctly homemade rather than mass-produced.

The zucchini soaks up the seasoned brine beautifully, giving you plenty of pickle flavor in every bite with a kick of heat to keep things interesting.

What to expect

Tangy, savory, crisp, and spicy without losing the fresh character of the zucchini. They are made for people who believe a pickle is generally improved by a little heat.

Add them to burgers, sandwiches, tacos, barbecue plates, snack boards, or chopped salads, or serve them alongside something rich where that acidity and spice can do some serious work.

About the maker

Stephanie started canning after tasting a pickled green bean at the State Fair and never looked back. Today, she creates jams, jellies, condiments, pickles, preserves, sauces, and seasonal small-batch specialties while helping others learn the art and science of preserving food for themselves.
