Are Courgettes better Cooked or Raw
Raw zucchini offers a similar nutrition profile as cooked zucchini, but with less vitamin A and more vitamin C, a nutrient which tends to be reduced by cooking. Zucchini contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and beneficial plant compounds.
Why do you Salt Courgettes before Cooking
Salting and rinsing your courgettes before you use them is the best way to avoid a mushy mess or diluted sauces, as it removes excess water. Chop your courgettes and place in a sieve over a large bowl or saucepan. Salt, and then leave for 20 minutes. Rinse, pat dry with kitchen paper and you’re good to go.
How keep Prepared Courgette Fresh
I am making a pasta dish at school that has courgette in it. The recipe says grate the courgette and because I don’t have much time at school to do it, I want to do it at home.
I do not know how to keep them fresh when they have already been prepared. I heard that if you keep grated courgette in water, it stays fresh. I am leaving the house at 7:50 and my lesson starts at 9.
You could totally just grate courgette (zucchini) the morning of your lesson. It will be fine; you don’t even have to put it in water. Just put it in a baggie. It would be fine at room temperature for several hours; it’s not even going to notice two. If you want to grate it the day before, just put the baggie in the refrigerator overnight.
How to Cook Courgette
Courgette (or zucchini as it is known in the U.S and Italy) is in season in the UK between June and September.
Part of the squash family, courgettes descended originally from the Americas but the type of courgettes that we are now familiar with were developed in Italy in the 1800s.
The word zucchini comes from Italian, however the word we use, courgette, stems from the French word for squash courgette.
Dark green courgettes are the most familiar variety but look out for white or yellow courgettes to liven up dishes or hunt down the flavourful trampette courgette, which is long and winding with a bulbous end – much like the musical instrument it is named after.
A fully grown courgette is known as a marrow in the United Kingdom and can be up to a metre in length.
Courgettes are very easy to grow and during the summer months.
People tend to become overrun with them but fortunately there are so many ways to eat courgettes you should never get bored.
Fortunately, they are low in calories and high in vitamins A and C, so they really are good for you too.
When buying courgettes look for firm, shiny and unblemished fruits which feel heavier than they look when picked up.
If they feel spongy this means they are past their best, so should be avoided.
Courgettes will keep happily in the fridge for two to three days; any more than this and they will start to lose their flavour and become bitter.
