Chef's Recipe! Better than Cucumber Pickles: Soy Sauce Pickled Zucchini! Raw zucchini is incredibly delicious! A must-try meal prep dish.

Overview

In this video, a professional chef shares a recipe for soy sauce pickled zucchini. Said to be even better than pickled cucumbers, this recipe features raw zucchini pickled directly. Combining soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil with julienned ginger creates a flavorful marinade. It is pickled for a full day, stirring every 6 hours to ensure the flavors absorb evenly. It's the perfect summer side dish or meal prep item.

Key Tips

• Prep
  • Cutting off both ends of the zucchini, halving them lengthwise, and slicing them diagonally to a 3mm thickness allows the marinade to absorb evenly.
• Marinade
  • Since the amount of marinade is relatively small, stirring frequently is the key to a delicious result.
• Marinating Time
  • Marinating for a full day while stirring every 6 hours ensures the flavor is distributed evenly throughout.
• Ingredients
