Hello, Thankfully the zucchini
season is coming to an end. We have had a very good season and have had zucchinis coming out
our ears. I have shared them with friends, family, neighbours and every
one at work. Out of desperation I have found lots of new recipes.
One of my favourite finds is Clotilde Dusoulier's Chocolate Zucchini Cake recipe. This is a beautifully moist chocolate cake. Clotilde is a French food writer based in
Paris. Clotilde had a great anecdote about zuchinnis which I which I thought was very funny. "An
American friend once explained to me that nobody ever locks their car in her
small town… except when it’s zucchini season. Leave your door
unlocked then, and you risk coming back to find a crate of zucchini left on
your passenger seat." Perhaps
I could try this tactic next year.
