It happens every year. We wait with feverish anticipation for the bounty of summer produce to arrive, from strawberries, peaches, and cherries, to heirloom tomatoes and sweet corn. Then comes the zucchini. And more zucchini. Then throw in a little summer squash…and then brace for more zucchini. It’s the same every year, but this time, we’re looking to one of our favorite chefs for advice on how to handle the summer abundance of what they call courgettes across the pond. Jamie Oliver, author of Ultimate Veg, is passionate about using lots of veggies in his recipes, and he also often cooks seasonally. So it’s no surprise that, just as we’re starting to go into full zucchini panic mode, Oliver is sharing some of his favorite recipes for this affordable, available ingredient.
