Moorish Zucchini Salad
Just in time for the local zucchini crop, I give you this Spanish-moorish salad.
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 pounds small zucchini, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup raisins
Several threads of Saffron
1/4 cup minced Italian parsley
1/4 cup minced mint
Juice of 1 lemon
salt and pepper to your liking
Brown the garlic in the oil, to flavor it-discard the garlic, after the oil is flavored
Briefly saute the zucchini until al dente
Remove the zucchini to a mixing bowl
Add the pine nutes to the saute pan and toast them
Add the pine nuts, raisins, Saffron, lemon juice, parsley, and mint to the zucchini, mix and let marinate for 2 to 3 hours in the refrigerator
Serve on a bed of salad greens or on grilled bread slices

TragedyOne of our most favorite clients, Traci, perished in a horrible auto accident last week. She was a delightful woman with a lot of spunk. I always enjoyed bantering with her. Here she is enjoying appetizers and drinks with her husband. He is gravely injured still in the hospital. She also leaves behind a daughter in high school. So sad.
