Summer Time Easy Courgette – Zucchini Carpaccio, A delightful and very elegant summer starter dish that is fresh and easy to make The combination of the parmesan cheese with the hazenut oil and black olives is a very sophisticated flavour, making this a wonderful dish to serve before any special summer dinner party If you cannot get hold of hazelnut oil, walnut oil would be a good substitute Green olives can also be used, but the colours will not be so dramatic! Try to use FRESHLY grated/shaved parmesan cheese from a block, the taste is far better than the pre-packed grated cheese Wine suggestion – a chilled Chablis or Chardonnay , A tribute recipe to my my last surviving homegrown zucchini of the season! Wonderful recipe, and using the marinading option is wonderful Takes a little longer but well worth the effort! Served with fresh crusty bread this is a superb recipe and well worth the effort Although I only had frozen shaved parmesan on hand and next time I would like to use it freshly shaved from the block as suggested This recipe will be certainly saved for next succhini season Thanks FT great recipe , Zucchini is grown in hothouses here, so I can enjoy this easy-fix appy yr-round A new & unusual combo for me, I admit was a bit wary of how it might be received by my DH & our Post-Thanksgiving dinner party guests, but I should not have been Served as part of a combo starter platter w/2 other appys, DH remarked how good it was ~ high praise from him as he tends to rate more harshly than I do used the TIP method of prep w/dried parsley + powder variety Parmesan & then served it w/crusty rolls I then served the meager leftovers w/turkey & dressing to snap the pic the next dy Made for the Nov Photo Challenge (Appys) + the Nov Aussie/NZ Recipe Swap & another success, FT! Thx for sharing this recipe w/us 🙂
