Cooking Patissons. 30 Best Recipes for Weekdays and Holidays

For some reason, many people still confuse zucchinis with doughnuts. But there really is a difference between them.

First of all, they have different shapes. “Patisson” in French translates as “pie”, zucchini is elongated and oblong in shape. In terms of its structure, the patisson is more porous and tastes dry, the zucchini, on the contrary, is watery and delicate.
The two vegetables taste almost the same. Except that the patisson must be cooked before eating, zucchini can be eaten raw or even drunk as a juice.

The patissons can be pickled, stewed, boiled and fried, but this will require a little more time than in the case of zucchini.

The main thing is to strictly follow the recipe and, at the same time, introduce your own special features in new dishes.

Salads and Appetizers with Patissons

1. Salad with casseroles and potatoes

An excellent winter salad, very hearty and appetizing. It contains ingredients such as: canned green peas, boiled potatoes, pattissons, chicken eggs, green onions, homemade mayonnaise and parsley. It’s an easy substitute for a full main course, so you can take it to work with you or give it to your kids at school for lunch.

2. A classic patisson salad

It feels exactly like a potato salad in terms of satiety. But the composition is significantly different: pattissons, Korean-style carrots, bell peppers, garlic, onions, black pepper, and herbs. You can serve immediately, or half an hour later. The salad gets pretty darn good when it’s infused.

3. Canned patisson salad

Its second name is “winter salad.” The beauty of this salad is that it goes perfectly with fried potatoes, boiled hard pasta, all kinds of porridges and even dumplings! Add black pepper, sweet paprika, horseradish, chili, or jalapeño peppers for extra spice. Be careful not to overdo it!

4. Fish salad with pickled patissons

We are going to talk about canned fish. My choices are salmon, mackerel or sardine. Mix boiled potatoes, pickled casseroles, fish, onions and garlic.

No worse than the main fish dish.

5. Patissons caviar

Use this type of canning as an independent dish, or as an addition to the main: roasts, buckwheat, stewed vegetables, meat.

6. Cheese snack made of patissons

The level of difficulty of cooking the dish: very, very easy. Cooking time is about 10-15 minutes. Patissons are fried in egg breading, or in sesame batter, exclusively on low heat.
