Directions
Zucchini Marinata (Marinated Zucchini Salad),A simple marinated zucchini salad from Italy. The zucchini is uncooked but through marinating and the use of plenty of lemon juice the zucchini acquires an “al dente”/semi-cooked texture. I only make this recipe at the peak of zucchini season in summer when quality and selection are best. From Mediterranean Light. Especially good with fresh basil!,I had giant zucchine to use and I din’t know what to do as I like to change recipe.As I found this recipe I knew that this will be great for them.I had to make a change as I was using a giant zucchini: I peele the zucchini,cut theit lenghtwise, discarded the seeds and sponge part, placed in a bowl and added 1 teaspoon salt.After 2 hours I rinced and drained it. In this way most of the exceded was away and I could follow the recipe as described.used small leaved basil for it.Thanks a lot for the recipe we really enjoyed this fresh salad! :),I found it useful to begin with the lemon and oil amounts recommended in the recipe and work back until I found the proportions that suited me — definitely a lot less lemon and I also added a teaspoon of sugar. Peeled the zucchini and kept the salad in a big jar refrigerated — ideal for little snacks!
