Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini: Look for small to medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that are large, misshapen, or have blemishes, as these may be bitter or have a tough texture.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, thyme, and oregano add a burst of flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount, as dried herbs are more concentrated.
  • Don't overcook the zucchini: Zucchini cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked zucchini will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Zucchini and blue cheese side dish is best served immediately after it is made. The zucchini will start to lose its crispness and the blue cheese will become less flavorful if the dish is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Zucchini and blue cheese side dish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The zucchini is crispy and flavorful, and the blue cheese adds a rich and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
