Description
Organic Green Zucchini, also known as courgette, is a versatile summer squash with smooth, dark green skin and tender, pale flesh. It has a mild, slightly sweet flavour and a soft texture when cooked, making it suitable for stir-fries, roasting, grilling, pasta dishes and other everyday recipes.
Physical Characteristics
-
Size: Medium cylindrical squash, packaged in a 500g portion (typically containing 2 to 3 zucchini).
-
Skin & Flesh: Smooth, glossy dark-green skin protecting a tender, pale cream-to-white interior flesh.
-
Core & Seeds: Soft, fully edible central core containing tiny, undeveloped seeds that cook down seamlessly.
-
Texture: Tender yet firm with high moisture content, softening smoothly when sautéed, roasted, or grilled while holding its shape.
Growth and Origin
-
Native Habitat: Descended from Mesoamerican squashes and refined in 19th-century Italy.
-
Cultivation: Harvested young while the skin remains thin and delicate, eliminating any need for peeling or seeding. Grown under strict organic agriculture standards without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
How to Use
Rinse the zucchini thoroughly and trim off both ends before preparing it. Slice, dice or cut it into ribbons according to your recipe. Green zucchini can be stir-fried, roasted, grilled or added to soups, pasta dishes and mixed vegetable recipes. Its skin and small, soft seeds are edible, so peeling or removing the seeds is generally unnecessary.
Nutritional Benefits
Zucchini is a low-calorie vegetable that provides dietary fibre, vitamin C, vitamin B6 and potassium. It also contains a high proportion of water, making it a versatile addition to a balanced diet.
Storage Method
Keep fresh zucchini refrigerated until ready to use. Store it unwashed in accordance with the packaging instructions and wash it thoroughly before cooking. Use it while the skin remains firm and free from signs of spoilage.
