It’s very, very much zucchini time. They are everywhere in Upstate. I had a good amount this week in my CSA box. I am not a huge fan of zucchini. I don’t dislike them. I just don’t find them very exciting. Over the years I have made countless zucchini breads. My favorite recipe is Tartine’s Zucchini and Orange Marmalade tea bread.
Tonight, inspired by an article in the NYT, I made a super simple zucchini dish. Sliced them an inch thick, boiled them a few minutes, cooled them , added a very good olive oil, lemon finishing salt and a very nice dried oregano that had been in my drawer for a while. No leftovers.
