Overnight courgette pickles

We love these pickles tumbled through warm roasted aubergines and red peppers, but really they are a welcome addition to any sandwich, toastie or barbecue spread. Slicing the courgettes into ribbons is easiest with fresh, firm courgettes and a sharp potato peeler or mandolin. Salting helps remove moisture from the courgette before you start pickling, to make sure they have the perfect crunch we all know and love.
