    1. Wash the young zucchini, pat dry, and cut into large cubes (if the zucchini aren't young, peel them and scoop out all the seeds).
    1. Halve the bell peppers, remove the seeds and ribs, wash, and cut into strips.
    1. Wash the tomatoes, score an X in the skin on top, scald with boiling water, slip off the skins, and dice the flesh.
    1. Peel the onion and slice into thin wedges.
    1. Peel the garlic and slice it thin.
    1. Put all the ingredients in a pot, pour in the vegetable oil, add the bay leaf, marjoram, basil, and paprika, stir well, and cook over low heat for 45 minutes from the moment it comes to a boil.
    1. Wash the parsley, chop it with a knife, add it to the vegetables along with the salt, cook 5 minutes more, and pack the relish into clean, dry jars.
    1. Cover the jars with lids and process in boiling water for 10 minutes (the time is given for quart/liter jars — I ended up with six liter jars of this relish).
  • Let the jars cool at room temperature, then move them to permanent storage.
  • With this relish on hand, winter gets a whole lot more pleasant!
