For enhanced flavor, try browning a clove of minced garlic in the olive oil before adding the zucchini. To prevent watery noodles, gently pat the zucchini strands dry with a paper towel before cooking. Experiment with different sauces! Pesto, marinara, or a simple garlic-herb butter sauce all complement zucchini pasta beautifully.
