Culinary uses:
Green courgettes can be used in a variety of ways and are suitable for many recipes, both hot and cold:
► Sautéed and pan-fried: Ideal for cutting into rounds, cubes or strips and sautéing in a pan with herbes de Provence.
► Soups and veloutés: Their sweet, water-rich flesh is perfect for making soups, veloutés or cold creams (gazpachos).
► Stuffed and au gratin: Can be cut lengthwise to be stuffed (with meat, rice or vegetables) or baked au gratin in the oven.
► Side dish: Use in ratatouille, purée, or as a side dish with fish or meat.
Storage and preparation tips:
► Storage: Fresh product. Keep cool (ideally between 8°C and 12°C) to prevent softening. Do not keep in the refrigerator for too long as this may alter the flavour and texture.
► Preparation: Wash and cut off the ends. The skin is edible and rich in nutrients.
