Thanks to reader Elise for a fabulous Chocolate Zucchini Bread recipe. Love it! Very moist, just chocolaty enough, great blend of flavors.
Just one question, does anyone have a good technique for squeezing water out of shredded zucchini?

Chocolate Zucchini Bread Success!
The zucchini 'Call for Recipes' yielded so many great recipes, I don't even know where to begin. Actually, that's not true. I know right where to begin...with the chocolate.

You could probably use a potato ricer. I have heard that mentioned several times on Food Network for spinach. Or you could put it in a kitchen towel and squeeze.

I usually use 2 paper towels so it's double as thick and won't rip through. Then squeeze it really well and scrape the paper towel because a lot of zucchini will stick to it. If you use a kitchen towel, it will turn green. I've done it before. :)
I think I probably should have just used a dark dish towel...when I did it by hand, obviously I couldn't really squeeze all the water out...but when I used paper towel, the little shredded bits totally stuck to the towel and I lost a bunch of it. in the end I wasted bunches of zucchini and had a giant mess in the kitchen! I think a real towel is the key?
have to check out the potato ricer...
You could probably use a salad spinner. Just a thought! Miss you guys!
Wow! I don't like zucchini but, my goodness, that looks YUMMY!
We grate it either in a food processer or with a cheese grater, than heavily salt it, and let it drain for 30-60 minutes in a colander. (Graton read this in a cookbook somewhere and it works great!) We like to then sautee it in oil, and it's delish! In fact that's what we're doing for dinner tonight :)
That looks incredible!
I made this recipe last night--it was delicious! I tried using a paper towel to get the water out but the paper towel tore into bits. I then used a dark colored dish towel and that seemed to work.
