Italian zucchini marinated recipe is a famous side dish from the south and it is colled Zucchine alla Scapece.

This is a dish from Naples and it is very easy to make. You can prepare like side dish or appetizers on the top of crackers. The word Scapace comes from Latin “escabeche” and the origin is in the Roman period that does mean dip or drench something . This is used to indicate a marinating process with vinegar and mint. It helps vegetables or fish to give a great smell and flavor.

Italian zucchini marinate recipe is a common side dish specially in the summer time that is best season for zucchini. My mom is usually making when it is very sunny day because she wants to make zucchini dry at the sun. I used this technique too because it helps to take away the water of the zucchini.
