MARINATED ZUCCHINI SALAD



Marinated Zucchini Salad image

Raw zucchini can be a dull ingredient, but when it's very thinly sliced it marinates beautifully, especially in lemon juice. I like to use a mixture of green and yellow squash here. Assemble this dish at least four hours before you wish to serve it, so that the squash has time to soften and soak up the lemony marinade.

Yield Serves 4 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill leaves
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound zucchini (about 2 large)

Steps:

  • In a bowl stir together all ingredients except zucchini until combined well. Cut zucchini crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick rounds and toss with sour cream mixture and salt to taste until combined well. Chill zucchini mixture, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 8.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and firm zucchini: Look for zucchini that are deep green in color, have smooth skin, and feel heavy for their size. Avoid zucchini that are bruised, have blemishes, or are starting to wilt.
  • Slice the zucchini thinly: This will help the zucchini cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the dressing.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the zucchini: This will help prevent the zucchini from tearing or becoming bruised.
  • Marinate the zucchini for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the zucchini to absorb the flavors of the dressing and become more tender.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This will help the flavors of the salad to meld together and make it more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Zucchini and dill salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its crunchy zucchini, tangy dressing, and fresh herbs, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or barbecue.
