Zucchini Butter Recipe

By grating zucchini and then cooking it slowly in a bit of butter or olive oil, you turn this humble vegetable into a luscious, remarkably flavorful spread known as zucchini butter. You can add a clove or two of garlic or shallot or a few green onions, well minced. You may like to add some fresh herbs at the end of cooking to mix things up a bit-basil, mint, or thyme are all good choices. Whatever extra kicks you use, serve it with crackers or toasts. It's also lovely alongside scrambled eggs or as a filling for omelets. Avid gardeners won't need this spelled this out, but this is an excellent way to make use of the fruits of any prolific zucchini plants in your patch
