Vegetable Marrow. No. 4. “Zucchetti à la Milanaise.” (Cataldi.)
For a vegetable course.
Blanch 6 whole vegetable marrows, without peeling them—
they should not be thicker than cucumbers. When cold, slice
them very little thicker than you would a raw cucumber. Have
ready a sauté pan with a little butter, into which put the marrow.
Set the sauté pan over a sharp fire till the marrow has become
slightly gold-coloured, season with pepper and salt, then dish it
in a pyramid and grate Parmesan cheese over it, put it into the
oven to brown and serve up very hot.
