Zucchini is commonly referred to as summer squash. The zucchini is a long, cylindrical vegetable, slightly smaller at the stem end, usually dark green in color. The flesh is a pale greenish-white and has a delicate, almost sweet flavor. Summer squash has a thin, soft skin and soft edible seeds, whereas their counterpart, winter squash, has a hard skin.

More formally known as Yellow Straightneck, this squash has a thin glossy skin that can vary from a light butter yellow to a bright lemon yellow, pebbled with bumps or smooth, encasing a paler yellow or white flesh. For best flavor and texture, the squash are harvested when they are five to six inches in length or less. It offers a classic summer squash flavor: mild with nuances of black pepper and nuts and a slightly buttery flavor when cooked..
