Hi everyone. I'm a home cook who likes sharp shiny things just a little too much. My wife got the veggie garden going again this year after a few years of being too busy.
Amongst it all, we have 5 zucchini (courgette) and 2 (yellow button) squash plants and they are prolific. We are getting around 2 kilos a day.
I need some ideas for cooking zucchini and squash.
We are getting a bit over steamed zucchini, sauteed zucchini, zucchini fritters, zucchini slice and zucchini pasta. I've even tried using it finely diced in a sofritto (which seems to work OK and the knife work is fun). I've renamed my Mizuno 270 "Zucchini slayer".
Thanks in advance to you clever chefs and cooks for some more tasty ideas.
Keep in mind that it's the height of summer here and we are getting mid 30s celcius most days and the 40 degree days are not far off.
