[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 353254, member: 1963"] Also be aware that no matter how carefully you check the vines, you will find, at the end of the season, at least one zucchini or cucumber the size of a baseball bat. One always sneaks in. Humungus zucchini are good for making quick "breads". Ginormous cukes can be peeled, de-seeded, and used in sauces and dips. In fact, cukes can be cooked in things like stir fries. You need to slice them up, salt the slices, and leave them to soak overnight. This pulls a lot of liquid out of the cukes and intensifies the flavor. This techique can also be used for eggplant that are bitter to the taste. [/QUOTE]
