About Grated zucchini
Grated zucchini is a versatile ingredient celebrated in various cuisines, particularly Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes. Made simply by shredding fresh zucchini, this preparation retains its vibrant green hue and mild, slightly sweet flavor. Zucchini is low in calories and contains essential nutrients like vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, making it a heart-healthy choice. Its high water content supports hydration and digestion, while its fiber is beneficial for gut health. Grated zucchini is often used in savory recipes like fritters and casseroles, but it also adds moisture and subtle sweetness to baked goods like muffins and bread. This ingredient is naturally fat-free, cholesterol-free, and gluten-free but can be a source of excess sodium and fat when paired with rich or processed toppings. For a healthier dish, combine grated zucchini with fresh herbs, light seasonings, and lean proteins to maximize its nutritional benefits.
