Steps:
- In the bottom of a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise (1 tablespoon), lemon juice (2 tablespoons), kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon). Gradually add the olive oil (2 tablespoons), whisking as you add it so it's emulsified.
- Cut the zucchini into "ribbons." It's easiest to use a vegetable peeler for this, but you can also use a sharp knife or a mandoline (see notes about seeds).
- Add the zucchini ribbons to the dressing and toss well to coat.
- Transfer the zucchini ribbons to a platter and sprinkle with shaved parmesan cheese (I used a vegetable peeler for this task, too) and toasted pine nuts (see notes).

SHAVED ZUCCHINI SALAD WITH PARMESAN AND PINE NUTS
This just came across my radar in an email from epicurious.com and I am posting it here for safekeeping. Sounds perfect for using up those abundant squash! I am altering it a bit; the original recipe calls for 1/3 c oil and an unspecified amount of parmesan.
