How to make it

  • In one bowl, combine the buttermilk and egg; mixing well.
  • In another bowl combine the cornmeal, salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  • Slice zucs into coins about 1/4-inch thick (no need to peel) and lay them out on a paper towel, salt generously and allow them to “sweat” for about 10 minutes.
  • Get the oil hot.
  • Take a fritter and dip it into the buttermilk and then into the cornmeal and then drop into the skillet.
  • (Three zucs will make about three batches to fry in a regular sized skillet.)
  • When you take up a batch, allow to cool on doubled paper towel for a minute or so and taste.
  • Salt while still hot if needed.
  • Grind black pepper over batch and add another layer of fresh paper towel.
  • Continue til all fritters are fried.
  • May keep warm in oven if necessary.
