Wash and dry vegetables. Grate zucchini and season with salt. Massage the salt into the grated zucchini and let it rest for about half an hour. During this time the zucchini will let out water. After half an hour, take the grated zucchini and squeeze out as much excess water as you can. Try placing grated zucchini in a clean kitchen cloth to help you squeeze. Once the water is removed, place zucchini in a bowl. It should have reduced in size considerably.
