This summer treat is perfect for frying--in a pan or deep-frying. If you're going to wash them, don't forget to pat them dry before frying to make sure they don't steam--this mistake is often what leads to the dreaded slime-y texture that turns many folks off to this summer veg. Or, to take advantage of their natural mucosal texture, include them in a summer soup or stew!
