    The directions in the magazine are more complete. We found this dish to have a bitter taste when eaten at room temperature. Read my entire review at: http://themomchef.blogspot.com/2010/07/marinated-zucchini-with-mint-from...

    the recipe doesn't seem to tell you to slice or otherwise cut the zucchini.
