About Courgette
Courgette, also known as zucchini, is a versatile summer squash popular in Mediterranean, Italian, and French cuisines. Thought to have originated in the Americas, it grew in culinary prominence in Europe during the 19th century. Courgettes are rich in water content, low in calories, and packed with essential nutrients, making them a great choice for healthy meals. They are an excellent source of vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, contributing to immune support, heart health, and healthy digestion. Their high fiber content promotes feelings of fullness and aids in maintaining blood sugar levels. Courgettes are easily incorporated into dishes like ratatouille, grilled vegetables, or spiralized for a low-carb pasta alternative. They contain negligible fat and cholesterol, but cooking methods such as frying can increase calorie content. Enjoy them raw, roasted, or steamed for maximum nutritional benefit.
