Stuffed Zucchini Pesaro-Style
From her earliest days as a cook, Marcella Hazan has enjoyed exploring the potential of hollowed zucchini and has found it can contain a diverse number of good things: ground pork and such pork products as prosciutto and pancetta, ground lamb and rice, or rice with wholly vegetarian accompaniments such as onions, tomatoes and herbs. This is a dish she had in the Marches seaside town of Pesaro. The zucchini contain veal—the meat with the most delicate taste—which stays unusually juicy within its moist vegetable cocoon.Plus: More Vegetable Recipes and Tips
