The title of this recipe from Helen Worth's Hostess Without Help (1971) sounds like the sarcastic nickname someone might give their midsummer garden:
Instead of being named after an over-zucchinified garden, Zucchini Colony is named after the Colony Restaurant, the originator of this recipe. The whimsical book also offers a picture of a chicken and pig demonstrating what might happen if you accidentally overcook the zucchini:
If you don't have a chicken to alert you to the billowing smoke and a pig with a fire hose to extinguish the fire, you're really missing out!
I tried typing "zucchini colony" into youtube to see if it had any videos (you never know). As I was typing, it recommended "zucchini colonoscopy". I decided that I really didn't want to search for videos any more...
ReplyDeleteThat does sound like a good place to stop.
DeleteQuick browning aid is also a funny name :D
ReplyDeleteThat's true! It sounds like an alternate name for self-tanner.
