Courgettes
June Ingredient of the Month
Summer is the season for courgettes, when they are ripened by the sun. They grow well, in many situations. Versatile and tasty, courgettes can be chopped in a salad, added to a pasta dish, cut into pieces in a stir-fry, or a risotto. Choose courgettes that are shiny and plump, and heavy for their size. They do not need to be peeled before eating, and can be eaten raw for everyday snacking.
