ZUCCHINI SALAD WITH PECORINO, BASIL AND ALMONDS
Many recipes call for shaving raw zucchini into long strands, which looks whimsical but often leads to soggy squash. Cutting zucchini into thicker batons helps the vegetable retain some bite. Douse the strips with a bright garlic-caper vinaigrette, tender herbs and tangy pecorino, and just before serving, toss in some chopped almonds for crunch. This zucchini salad makes a great starter or a side, but it can also be the foundation of a meal: Add it to cooked penne or pearl couscous for a quick pasta salad, or scatter it over a slice of grilled bread that's been slathered with mascarpone or ricotta.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the oil, shallot, capers, caper brine, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Trim the ends of the zucchini and cut each squash into 2-inch segments. Slice the segments lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slabs, then slice those slabs lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick batons. Add to a large bowl.
- Just before serving, season the zucchini with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Stir in the cheese, herbs and dressing and season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the almonds and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Pour oil to a depth of 1 inch in a wide frying pan and heat to 375 degrees.
- Put flour in a pie plate, season generously with salt and pepper and add a pinch of cayenne. Combine lightly beaten egg and milk. Working in batches, dip zucchini slices lightly in seasoned flour, then in egg mixture, then once more in flour. Carefully slip them into hot oil, without crowding. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden. Remove and drain on paper towels, then transfer to a warm platter. Salt lightly.
- In a small bowl, mix together parsley, garlic and lemon zest. Sprinkle a little of the mixture over fried zucchini, then sprinkle lightly with grated cheese and red pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

QUICK SAUTE OF ZUCCHINI WITH TOASTED ALMONDS AND PECORINO
I heard this recipe on the Martha Stewart Sirius Radio channel. It was from Jimmy Bradley, chef and owner of Red Cat and Harrison restaurants in NYC. It sounded so easy and delicious, I had to try it. I used a mandoline to cut the zucchini into matchsticks.

Steps:
- Slice the zucchini lengthwise 1/8th inch thick, then slice again to resemble matchsticks.

- When the almonds are golden brown and toasted (approx. 30 seconds), add half the zucchini to each pan and toss to coat zucchini with the hot oil. (You just want to warm the zucchini, not cook it.).
- Season with salt and pepper. Return to heat for about 30 seconds to warm through.
- Divide almonds and zucchini between four warmed plates and top with the sheets of pecorino.
- Serve while still nice and hot.

Steps:
- The key to this dish is cooking with high heat, don't add too much zucchini at once or it will steam and mush. Use 2 pans dividing the ingredients to keep the heat even.

Season with salt and pepper and cook for 30 sec. Divide the zucchini on plates, add pecorino on top and serve immediately.
