Market Look-For’s
- Tight, unmarked skin with a bit of fuzz still hanging on
- Even width along the body
Storage
- Store in a cool dark place. Refrigerators make zucchini dull and pocked.
Notes
- The larger the squash the larger the seeds and the more water in the flesh.
- Large squash are good for zucchini bread etc.
- Small squash are best for shaving raw.
- Summer squash is generally dull in flavor—perk up with a lot of herbs, acid, salt and fat.
