Thanks, Liz! Nice to know there’s an actual ‘recipe’ for something I make quite a lot during Zucchini Season. I highly recommend this; it’s yummy! :)
We had a Japanese restaurant in Madison that was to die for. They made this as a side dish, but of course right in front of you and with great theatrics. ;)
(Kind of a knock off ‘Benny Hana’ restaurant.)
They made an awesome drink called ‘The Universe’ with I don’t know WHAT in it, other than I learned to love Midori Melon Liqueur.
