Time 20h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 medium zucchini, about 1 1/2 pounds
2 tablespoons imported mustard
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1/3 cup corn, peanut or vegetable oil
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon finely chopped dill

Steps:

  • Trim off ends of zucchini. Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. There should be about 6 cups.
  • Bring enough water to boil to cover slices. Add slices and simmer 1 1/2 minutes. Do not overcook; they must remain a bit crisp. Drain quickly, run under cold water and drain thoroughly again. Let cool or chill in the refrigerator.
  • Put mustard and vinegar in mixing bowl and start beating with wire whisk while gradually adding oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in dill.
  • Add zucchini slices and toss to blend. Serve.
