More things to do with zucchini!
Many of you know Rosalind Creasy, Queen of the Edible Landscape. If you don’t, look her up. She wrote Edible Landscaping, among others. It turns out that she’s not only an amazing gardener, one who makes colors and textures sing, who makes edible gardens more beautiful than any ornamental garden I’ve ever seen, but she cooks, too. Darn her and her…her…competence!!!
Erik found her Recipes from the Garden at the library and brought it home. This is the first thing we’ve cooked from it, but we liked it a lot. These are savory pancakes that suit for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner. I imagine if you made them without the onions they could be served sweet, with syrup or jam, as a veggie-infused breakfast pancake.
>Note: She calls for yellow zucchini or summer squash, but we used green zucchini.
I will be making these tomorrow morning. I will be using yellow summer squash.
These sound delicious, and with the zucchini coming in…well, more recipes are pretty much always needed.
Thanks for a new zucchini recipe. I can always use new ones!
Sweet! a use for both the water-fed grist mill ground cornmeal I received from a neighbor and the zucchini which are sure to start bearing any time now.
Zucchini is also a good, lo-cal stretcher for potato pancakes, but you have to remember to squeeze the living dickens out of the grated zucchini before you mix it in.
This is sort of like cornbread with vegetables in it, something I will like. But, do you think that leaving off the sugar would hurt. I don’t. Other than the sugar, I might have new favorite. I will have a zucchini recipe up tomorrow. My children loved it! I was going to post it before, but did not. I guess it sounds like a plug for my blog…uh…well…of course it is…lol.
Love it, it’s a bit different from the usual zuke recipes, now I’ve got to find some non-gmo cornmeal!
Oh my, these were delicious for dinner tonight. I did include yellow pepper, finely diced, in the recipe. Served with leftover wild Alaskan sockeye salmon and a big salad, mmmmmmm-yum! Thanks for sharing. Best wishes!
@Parsimony: I’m sure it will be fine w/o sugar.
@Anon: That sounds deelish! Glad you liked them!
That sounds super and I am always looking for new ways to eat up those zucchini!
I just returned Edible Landscaping to my library a couple days ago! I didn’t know there was a cookbook!
