Spicy zucchini

Appetizing, fiery, spicy, incredibly tasty! Winter squashes are sometimes called “mother-in-law’s tongue,” and for good reason, since they taste quite sharp. You can adjust the spiciness of the snack with the amount of pepper. This preparation will be an excellent addition to any side dish, meat or poultry.
