How to cook zucchini

Zucchini is one of the most common dietary products. It has a very low calorie content and is equal in this indicator to cucumber, green salad and lettuce. This vegetable is great for those suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and diabetes. Also, zucchini is great for baby food, so it is often boiled for feeding babies.

In cooking, it is preferable to use young zucchini. They are tastier and juicier than mature ones, and cook faster. Boiled zucchini is added to salads, mashed potatoes, soups are prepared from them. Boil zucchini in a small amount of water, as they release a lot of their own juice during cooking. You can cook zucchini in water and steam. In any case, young zucchini will cook faster than mature ones - take this into account.
