Default Courgettes - eat raw? Pickled?

Can courgettes be eaten raw? The other day I had some that had been only
very lightly fried in a little bacon fat and they were still quite crisp
and tasted a little like sweet chestnuts. Prompted me to wonder if anyone
eats them raw? Can they be pickled raw in vinegar? Is that essentially
what pickled gherkins are?

Try this: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2...ourgette-rolls

When you try them fried again, add a bit of ground cumin. I was served them
this way once and they were delish!

Looks like a tasty recipe. I've printed it off to try. Thanks. :-)
