Instructions

1
Grate the zucchini on the large holes of a box grater into a large mixing bowl. Toss with 1 tsp kosher salt and let stand for 10 minutes.
2
Transfer the salted zucchini to a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and wring firmly over the sink until as much liquid as possible has been squeezed out — the zucchini should feel nearly dry and the wrung-out mass should hold together loosely. Return the dried zucchini to the bowl.
