Care

Avoid pressing or stacking Courgette de Nice, as its skin is more prone to bruising and damage than that of regular courgettes.

Store separately

Courgette de Nice are sensitive to ethylene gas. Don’t store them next to ethylene-producing produce such as apples, pears and tomatoes to prevent faster wilting.
