It is a quite simple recipe that I discovered within the Italian e book “Le ricette di Osterie d’Italia”. The zucchini are boiled within the marinade after which left to chill. It may well served as a part of a selection of antipasti, or as a contorno (aspect dish). I wasn’t doing a complete antipasti unfold, however added some fast pan-fried shrimp to function antipasti. That is a type of recipes that’s higher the subsequent day after it has spent an evening within the fridge.
