We leave lettuce and green leaves to give variety to our summer salads with a vegetable that also reigns in the summer months, the versatile and healthy zucchini. By changing the type of cut and presentation we can make very tasty and original dishes without having to cook.
Reading tapes somewhat resemble pasta pappardellebroad, and very beautiful on the plate, creating the perfect creation to mix with a good dressing, which in this case is citrus, to provide more freshness and prevent the rapid oxidation of cut vegetables. Only a manual peel is required Y-shaped to receive the ribbons, which do not have to be perfect or marked, leaving in the middle of the trunk, with the seeds, for another layout.
The tapes are out thin and flexible, but at the same time retaining a crunchy point that is very tasty when eaten, improved in this case with poppy seeds. Of course, you can substitute the hazelnuts and parmesan for other fruits and cheeses, although this combination works very well and is not typical that we usually see in salad recipes.
Wash and dry well the zucchini, citrus fruits and fresh herbs used; If we use green onions, remove the best outer layers.
With a manual peeler, or mandoline, remove the ribbons from the zucchini by peeling long strips, turning the zucchini itself to reach the central trunk to the seeds. Discard this but use it for another recipe, for example zucchini and chickpea cream. You can also tell the first lines of skin that are hard and can be damaged, to taste.
Arrange the ribbons in a salad bowl, chop the chives and add; season with lime zest, a pinch of salt and black pepper. Dress with lemon juice to taste and extra virgin olive oil, mix everything well. Add the poppy seeds and stir again. Finally add the hazelnuts cut slightly and flaked or grated cheese to taste.

What to accompany zucchini ribbon salad with
The good part of this salad is very satisfying without weight, so we can eat it as a dish for lunch or dinner, although the design would be to supplement it with some protein aside like grilled fish, fried or cooked chicken or slightly cold tofu, for example.
