Zucchini And Pecorino Salad With Truffle Oil
- 4 medium-sized zucchini, about 1 1/2 pounds
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for garnish
- 1/3 cup shaved Pecorino Toscano or Pecorino Sardo cheese
- 1-2 tablespoons white truffle oil
- Trim ends of zucchini. Peel the zucchini with a vegetable peeler lengthwise in long ribbons, rotating to peel evenly, stopping when you see the seeds. Discard core.
- Place zucchini ribbons in a medium-sized bowl. Add olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
- Arrange a mound on individual salad plates. Sprinkle with Pecorino shavings. Drizzle with a teaspoon of truffle oil. Serve with extra pepper. Serve immediately.
- Note: As soon as the zucchini is salted it will begin to sweat, so prepare immediately before serving.
