How to Make Zucchini Noodles
- Make the pasta/spaghetti shape using a zucchini spiralizer or a julienne vegetable peeler. Most mandoline slicers or a standard vegetable peeler will also work and make wide noodles.
- Don’t peel the zucchini. Peeled zucchini noodles are mushy and have a little crunch, so the skin is needed to give them texture and crunch.
- Don’t overcook the zucchini noodles or else they’ll become mushy. Zucchini noodles cook really fast, Cook the noodles for just 2 minutes to warm them up. The noodles should be cooked to al dente (just like pasta).
