My parents had the privilege of dining with this gentleman once. Class act. You inspired me to cook, and uncover a hidden passion. Additionally, as someone who was a prosecutor for a while, I have nothing but respect for your foundation and the great work it does. My French is Quebecois French. À ta santé

Well, I just happen to have a nice zucchini and fresh garden tomatoes sitting on my counter. Looks like I'll have to make this tomorrow!

Now tell me, what popular TV cooks can come up with such a healthy, great salad? None. Jaques is the master of master chefs.

Great recipe Thanks

[@mark-ib7sz]

Simple but elegant. Thank you chef.

[@purleybaker]

The quick cook on the zucchini isn't something I would have thought of doing on my own. It's a great idea. Thanks.

[@arak2551]

I do the same with eggplants as well, instead of salting.

Hello Chef ❤. Keep it up. Watching you on PBS to. Peace ✌️

[@beckypincalifornia1985]

Zap many vegetables, broccoli, asparagus, beets, etc., for 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Salt and refrigerate until ready to add to salad. Greatly enhances the flavor without removing the crunch. Can also parboil. Yum!

[@deborahnorris1125]

simple and pretty. Summer is so wonderful for food prep. Thank you Chef.

[@Mrs.TJTaylor]

Now I know another thing to do with too many zucchini from the garden! Looks delicious.

Monsieur Pépin struck gold again!

[@KevinWJenner]

Oh yes, Sir Pepin; a most long-awaited recipe, indeed! I recall hearing from you about it's palate-building properties and I have discovered how it works. When one has 'tasted The Courgette', it's various disparate flavor and aromatic notes are separated by the acidity and complex profile posessed of the tomato. I'm sure in the old days they would have used the last of winter's citrus from the cold-hold in Europe's North, various stonefruits especially peach, or failing this fresh fig soaked in moderately-sweet fortified wine. We're really in a glut when it comes to New World's reliance on tomato though it remains one of His Most Precious Jewels. Be well, my friend.

Simple and perfectly ready for the summer table!

Did we forget the lemon juice or vinegar? Or was it intentional?
