Shaved Squash Carpaccio with Capers and Ricotta Salata

Scott Phillips

Servings:4

Refreshing and light, this is a perfect first course for a summer dinner. Make it up to a few hours in advance, keeping it covered and chilled and adding the salt, pepper, cheese, and capers just before serving.

Ingredients

  • 3 medium yellow summer squash or zucchini, or a mix (about 1 lb.)
  • 1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 oz. ricotta salata or Manchego
  • 1 Tbs. brined capers, drained and chopped

Preparation

  • Using a vegetable peeler, shave off long strips of squash, rotating the squash in your hand as you work around the seed-filled center. (Stop when it becomes difficult to shave, and discard the seedy centers.) Arrange the strips on a large platter, overlapping them slightly.
  • Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the ricotta salata over the squash. Top with the capers, and serve.
