How to Roast Zucchini and Squash
- Choose fresh, local veggies. Garden-fresh zucchini from your own garden or the farmer’s market will optimize the flavour of this dish!
- Salt first, to remove water. Chop the zucchini and squash, add the salt and toss. Let it sit for a few minutes and then drain off any liquid.
- Use fresh herbs. Adding fresh dill to this dish gives it such a delicious, fresh flavour!
- Roast at a high temperature. To keep this dish from becoming too watery, roast it at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
