Advice

For preparing the salad, young zucchinis that do not exceed twenty centimeters in length are most suitable, as the seeds are still soft and immature at that stage. Young zucchinis also do not need to be peeled. If we want to soften the zucchini slices, we steam them. Pour about 3 dl of water into a larger pot. Arrange the zucchini slices in a steaming basket and place it in the pot. Make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the basket. Cover the pot and let the water boil. Steam the zucchinis until they soften but are still firm to the bite.
