Zephyr Squash and Feta Pancakes


Monday 19 August
Two of the zephyr squash vines out in the garden are still producing flowers (to stuff and eat) and squashes (to eat and eat).  The latter are dainty pale yellow things (oddly, no green color as they had last year), at least, until the occasional lurker eludes us and grows to whiffle-bat size. 
When that happens, we grate it up to make zucchini and feta pancakes, an early Moosewood recipe.  And now we use a potato ricer to squeeze the water out of the grated squash, which is quicker than salting and waiting.
The pancakes were topped with various chutneys and drained yogurt, while a nice ripe tomato and basil salad made a good foil for the flavors.
