What can these small marrows be used for? Up until now I put them on the compost heap, any ideas please? They go pretty well on the BBQ with a teriyaki-type marinade. You need a low enough fire to give them time to soften, then cut the skin off before serving. Moderately overgrown ones are OK if there is something to give them some taste, though they are mostly mush. Immoderately overgrown ones are best recycled in the way that the OP mentioned :-) For people who have the space, I very strongly recommend Trombonchino d'Albenga, as a 'courgette' that remains tasty and with good texture even at huge sizes.
