I'm not saying I'm a zucchini hater, but this is the one and only zucchini recipe I've ever devoted myself to, and I did in the name of fritters. That said, trying to love zucchini is like forcing yourself to finish a very long, boring book that everyone is raving about . . . so you keep plodding away, even though you aren’t into it. My feelings about zucchini are on public record: They’re basically water in vegetable form. Ironically, I love love LOVE zucchini fritters, but in order for them to get crunchy, you need to coax out as much liquid from them as possible. That happens in stages here: first by salting and squeezing; then by cooking over moderately high heat to force evaporation; and finally by drying out the fritters in the oven after they’re fried. If you want to love zucchini, you have to put in the time.
