Zucchini with Lemon

If you grow zucchini, sometimes you’ll see baby ones that stop growing. When I was living on the Aegean Coast, I learned a very easy and tasty way to make use of them! 

This is a cold cooking technique that is used also for preparing fish. The lemon and salt are serving as cooking agents.
