How to make zucchini noodles:
-
Make zucchini noodles with a spiralizer. (Check the post above for tips and other methods!)
How to cook zucchini noodles in the oven:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Grease an extra large baking sheet. (Use parchment paper if it's not non-stick.)
-
Arrange the zucchini on the baking sheet in a thin layer, making sure not to crowd the pan. Sprinkle with sea salt lightly and toss.
-
Bake for about 15 minutes, until al dente. (You can cook longer if you want them softer.)
-
Pat the zoodles dry with a double layer of paper towels.
-
Toss with melted butter, black pepper, and more sea salt to taste if needed.
How to cook zucchini noodles on the stove:
-
Place zucchini noodles into a colander over the sink. Sprinkle with sea salt and toss. Let sit for 30 minutes to drain.
-
After half an hour, squeeze the zoodles gently over the sink to release more water. No need to get out every last drop, but just the majority.
-
Heat butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add zucchini and stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until al dente. (Cooking time may vary depending on how much zucchini you have and the size of your pan.) Season with black pepper and more sea salt to taste.
