ITALIAN ZUCCHINI SOUP

ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
• Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.

ZUCCHINI-PARMESAN SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Sweat zucchini, onion, and garlic in butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in broth and nutmeg, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until zucchini is very soft, 5 minutes. Puree 1/2 the soup in a blender or food processor, then return it to the pan with carrot, cream, and parmesan. Simmer until carrot is tender and cheese melts. 5-8 minutes, stirring often. Finish with parsley, salt and pepper. Yield: 4 1/2 cups Source: Cuisine at Home
