## Editor's Notes
- **Food safety note:** This recipe uses pressure canning (10 pounds pressure, 30 minutes for pints), which is the correct method for low-acid vegetables such as zucchini and tomato-vegetable mixtures. Modern USDA guidelines should be consulted before canning, as recommended processing times and pressures may have been updated since this card was written. Altitude adjustments to pressure may also be required.
- **Food safety note:** The serving suggestion instructs boiling the canned product for 10 minutes before serving, which was a common older precaution for home-canned low-acid vegetables. -

- **"Slack Lime"** — also called pickling lime or calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). It is used to firm the texture of pickles. This is distinct from citrus lime juice. It must be thoroughly washed off before proceeding, as excess lime can affect acidity and safety of the final product. -
