Grind zucchini and onion in a food grinder; add canning salt. Mix well; cover and refrigerate overnight. The next day, drain; rinse twice in cold water. Combine cornstarch with 1/4 cup vinegar in a small bowl; mix well. In large stockpot, mix together sugar, turmeric, mustard seed, red pepper, if using, cornstarch mixture, remaining vinegar, pepper; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in zucchini mixture and green pepper. Boil for 30 minutes. Spoon into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe rims; secure with lids and rings. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Set jars on a wire rack to cool; check for seals.
Tip: A quick-fix for a bounty of zucchini, this will work great for a favorite zucchini bread recipe. Wash and grate zucchini, then steam for one to 2 minutes. Measure out the amount of grated zucchini a recipe calls for, then spoon into freezer-proof containers, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Let the zucchini cool, then seal the container and freeze. When ready to use, thaw and discard any liquid.
