Zucchini

Zucchini are a type of squash, specifically listed as being a type of summer squash. It will taste different from the other squashes out there, though. Zucchinis have also been called Italian squash and just for an fyi (the name is French, it seems) courgette.

yes, and so is corgette

The cells in the zucchini shrink because they lose their water

its green and long and it could be yellow and it's wide:)

zucchini come in many sizes so this is unknowable -- however 1.5 average-sized zucchinis are probably about 1 cup after shredding

approximatley 400

Light tan color with a yellowish cast to it.

no i woudnt try it you can be fined or jailed unless your items are declared and even then they can confiscate it if its fresh or has life within it or on it but even declared it might be hazardos to the country you are going to visit or work in im not and expert i just watch australian border security al`ot5

hope this helped ~Pj~

"You eat them" is just being rude.....Squash bugs can be eliminated by using Green light Neem solution (Found at gardening stores), or just mix 2 gallons of water, and 1/4 c. dish soap. (You can add some neem oil according to bottle directions, too). Spray the leaves, UNDER the leaves, too, and stems in the morning. The soap makes the bugs wet, then die. The Neem oil stops breeding, too, and most of the time feeding. Remember, to hand pick all of the eggs laid by the bugs, checking every other day or so. TRASH THEM, trying not to squish them. I am doing the same thing now with my garden! (Poor zucchini plants!)

If it is kept frozen, in a properly sealed container and is not subjected to temperature fluctuations (as in a self-defrosting freezer), it can keep for a year and longer. Try to consume it before the next crop comes in. It can actually "keep" much longer, but the quality will deteriorate.

Most people consider them vegetables but they are actually fruit. They have seeds inside them, therefore they are fruit. That's why tomatoes are actually fruit, they have seeds inside of them.

Most cucumber plants contain a bitter compound called cucurbitacin, which can be present in the fruit as well as the foliage. Bitterness in cucumbers tends to be more prominent when plants are under stress from low moisture, high temperatures or poor nutrition.

For some cucumber eaters, the bitter taste can be accompanied by a digestive discomfort known as a burp. Some of the newer cultivars of cucumbers do not have the bitter compound and, thus, no burp. So, some seed companies called their bitter-free cukes "burpless."

The amount of bitterness in the cucumber depends on the severity of the heat and drought. In most cases, cutting off the stem-end and removing the skin of bitter cucumbers will remove much of the bitterness. Some fruits will be bitter all the way through and should be discarded. Bitter cucumbers will not taste any better when pickled!

Watering during droughty periods to provide 1 to 1 1/2 inches of water in a single application will help keep bitterness out of subsequent fruits. Apply a mulch, such as straw, shredded bark or newspaper, to help cool the soil, conserve moisture and keep weeds under control.

Next year, your best bet is to plant bitter-free cultivars and provide optimum growing conditions, when possible. Many cultivars are listed as being bitter-free, including Carmen, County Fair, Diva, Green Knight, Sweet Slice, Sweet Success and Tasty Green. New cultivars arrive each year

It is kind of looks like a cucumber but it isn't the same inside. Indeed all squash, gourds, and melons are members of the same botanical family as cucumbers, Cucurbitaceae. All belong to the type of fruit called peppo. A peppo is a berry with a thick skin outside, fleshy interior. Isn't it remarkable that the cucumber and cantelope are in the same botanical family?

Zucchini are a type of summer squash - the skin is not as thick nor the flesh as dry and sugary as winter squash, so they do not keep well.

You can. If your eating it raw yes if not it doesnt matter.

Quick breads (chemically leavened) which most zucchini bread recipes are, were not developed until the end of the 18th century. This took place in America, where pearlash was discovered. Pearlash is a refined form of potash, and it produces carbon dioxide gas in dough.

The best way is to attract honeybees by planting attractive flowers such as bee balm nearby. Of course you should also avoid using insecticides while the zucchini are flowering. If you mean to artificially pollinate by hand, you could channel your inner Gregor Mendel, use a tiny watercolor brush, remove polen from the stamens and gently dab onto the pistils of the flowers. In my experience, just having squash flowers attracts bees, and bees are very good pollinators.

Zucchini infected with leaf curl virus are generally safe to eat, as the virus does not pose a health risk to humans. However, the quality, taste, and texture of the fruit may be affected, often resulting in smaller or misshapen zucchini. It's advisable to inspect the zucchini for any signs of decay or spoilage before consumption. If in doubt, it's best to consult a gardening expert or discard the affected plants.

Zucchini - novel - was created in 1982.

I love zucchini and grow it in my garden every year. Zucchini is pretty much tasteless, and takes on the flavor of whatever it is mixed in with it. I make zucchini bread with pineapple, nuts and raisins, chocolate zucchini bread, which tastes like brownies, lemon zucchini bread with nuts, zest of a lemon and lemon flavoring. With that being said, this is how I would do it. If you want zucchini to taste like apple pie use all the ingredients you normally use for apple pie, substituting zucchini for apples. Zucchini has a lot of water, so I think I would slice, chop it and put on paper towels to remove some of the moisture. I even think you could mix zucchini and apples.
