CONCIA (ZUCCHINI WITH MINT AND VINEGAR)
Steps:
- Cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick slices, or to prepare it Veneto fashion, cut the zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and let stand in a colander for 30 minutes to drain off any bitter juices. Rinse and pat dry.
- In a small bowl, combine the mint or basil, parsley, and garlic.
- Warm the olive oil in a frying pan over medium high heat. In batches, add the zucchini and cook, turning as needed, until golden on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a shallow serving dish and sprinkle with some of the mint mixture and some of the vinegar. Repeat with the rest of the zucchini, mint mixture and vinegar. Leave at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours, basting occasionally with vinegar in the dish, before serving

ZUCCHINE ALLA SCAPECE: ZUCCHINI FINISHED IN VINEGAR
Steps:
- Heat up extra-virgin olive oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pan for frying. Gently place the zucchini in hot oil and fry until golden. Then place the zucchini on an absorbent paper towel to drain excess the oil. Allow to cool. Place the fried zucchini, mint leaves, and garlic into a bowl. Season the zucchini with fresh extra-virgin olive oil, white wine vinegar, and salt. Mix well to coat evenly. Remove the quartered garlic cloves before serving.
ZUCCHINI WITH VINEGAR, MINT AND GARLIC
These zucchini slices are usually fried but they are just as good grilled. They can be prepared hours before serving, even a day ahead.

Steps:
- Trim the ends of the zucchini and cut them lengthwise in slices about 1/3 inch thick. Arrange them side by side on a baking sheet lined with foil and brushed with oil. Brush the slices generously with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
- Cook under a preheated broiler until lightly browned, then turn over and brush the other side with oil and return to the broiler until browned.
- Mix the vinegar with the mint and garlic and brush a little onto each slice. Serve at room temperature.
- Instead of using raw garlic, heat it in 2 tablespoons oil in a small frying pan until the aroma rises, but do not let it color.
- Serve the grilled slices topped with strained Greek-style yogurt.
ZUCCHINE SOTT'OLIO (ZUCCHINI PRESERVED IN OIL WITH HOT PEPPERS, GARLIC, AND MINT)
Steps:
- Cut the zucchini crosswise into 3-inch (8-centimeter) pieces. Cut each piece in half lengthwise, then cut out all the seeds and spongy pulp from the center. Slice each section crosswise 3?16 inch (41/2 millimeters) thick. (A mandoline or other manual vegetable slicer is helpful for this.)
- Make layers of sliced zucchini and salt in a large bowl, then toss well. Macerate for 12 hours to draw the water out of the zucchini. Drain the zucchini, then squeeze a handful at a time to remove excess water.
- Place the zucchini in a heavy nonreactive pot and add the vinegar and 1 cup (250 milliliters) water. The liquid should barely cover the zucchini.
- Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir to redistribute the zucchini, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until the zucchini slices are cooked through but still whole, about 5 minutes. Do not allow them to break apart. Smaller zucchini will take less time.
- Drain the zucchini and put them in a large colander. Top them with a heavy weight, such as a pot filled with water, to squeeze out the liquid. Let the zucchini drain under the weight for 15 minutes.
- Lay several clean kitchen towels on a table covered with cardboard. Arrange the zucchini slices on the towels, spreading the slices apart. Let dry at room temperature until they feel a little leathery and are no longer damp, 24 to 48 hours. They will shrivel considerably.
- Place the zucchini in a bowl and toss with the mint, garlic, hot peppers, and the 1/2 cup (125 milliliters) olive oil. Taste for salt and let the mixture marinate at room temperature for a day.
- Transfer the zucchini to a 1-pint (1/2-liter) glass jar. Pack them in tightly, pushing them down with a fork or spoon to remove any air gaps. Top with olive oil so they are completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 weeks before sampling to give the zucchini time to absorb the seasonings.
- Bring them out of the refrigerator about an hour before you plan to serve them to allow the oil to liquefy. Return any leftover zucchini to the refrigerator, topping with oil so the zucchini remain completely submerged. If kept submerged in olive oil and refrigerated, the zucchini will last for up to 6 months.

Steps:
- 1 Scrub the zucchini with a brush under cold running water. Trim off the ends. Cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch slices. 2 Pour 1 inch of oil into a deep heavy skillet or wide saucepan. Heat the oil over medium heat until a small piece of vegetable dropped into the oil sizzles. 3 Pat the zucchini slices dry with paper towels. Carefully slip about one-fourth of the zucchini into the hot oil. Cook until lightly browned around the edges, about 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the zucchini to paper towels to drain. Fry the remainder in the same way. 4 Layer the zucchini in a dish, sprinkling each layer with some of the vinegar, garlic, mint, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate at least 24 hours before serving. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc.
