Zucchini

Zucchini

Family: Curcurbitaceae
Also known as courgettes, these thin-skinned summer squash have few calories and many uses in the kitchen. Excellent as a moisturizer in cake batters, the firm flesh can also be added to pasta sauces, marinated and grilled on the barbecue, baked, broiled or fried. Cubed zucchini makes an outstanding addition to summer soups, and is an essential ingredient in Ratatouille. Pick the fruits when they are under 20cm (8") long, while the flesh and seeds are still tender, or pick them very small with the flower buds still attached for an interesting sauteed side dish. Zucchinis are a useful source of folate, potassium, manganese and vitamin A.
