Wash hands with soap and warm water. Wash produce well.
Cut zucchini to desired thickness by first cutting thin planks, and then cutting strips from the planks. The strips should look like thick spaghetti. Avoid using the seeded center of the zucchini as they do not hold up well. (Tip: Save the zucchini centers and blend with the pasta sauce.)
Add salt to the sliced zucchini and toss to coat evenly. Allow zucchini to rest in a colander to allow excess water to escape for about 10 minutes, then pat dry with a paper towel.
Cooking options: 1. Pan fry with 1 tbsp olive oil for 2 minutes. 2. Leave raw and top with hot pasta sauce.
Top with pasta sauce, pesto, or dressing of your choice. Serve immediately.
