About Cukini
Cukini, commonly known as zucchini, is a versatile summer squash originating from the Americas but popularized by Italian cuisine. With a mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender texture, it's a staple in dishes ranging from ratatouille to spiralized pasta alternatives. Nutritionally, cukini is low in calories and carbohydrates, making it ideal for weight-conscious diets. It’s packed with vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants that support eye health, skin repair, and immune function. High water content and dietary fiber promote hydration and digestive health. Cukini is cholesterol-free and contains almost no fat, aligning with heart-healthy eating. However, frying or breading can diminish its nutritional benefits, whereas steaming or roasting can preserve its wholesome qualities. Whether enjoyed raw, cooked, or baked, this nutrient-rich squash is a delicious addition to many cuisines worldwide, celebrated for its adaptability and health-promoting properties.
