Zucchini Kugel

I first tasted this offbeat kugel at the home of my friend Shirley Drevich in Miami. (Shirley learned it from her Polish-born cousin, Hannah Kuperstock.) I like to think of it as Jewish zucchini bread. The mint isn’t strictly traditional, but I love the way it electrifies the flavor of the zucchini. If you happen to grow zucchini in your garden, you’ll really appreciate this recipe as a way to use up extra vegetables.
