Origin
Zucchini, also known as courgette, is a summer squash that originated in the Americas. It is believed to have been first cultivated in Central America and Mexico thousands of years ago. The plant was later introduced to Europe by Spanish explorers during the 16th century. From there, it spread to other parts of the world through trade and exploration. Zucchini is now widely grown and consumed in many countries, particularly in Mediterranean and North American cuisines.
