Tiny courgettes

Only pick up the small or tiny ones from the veggie market. The best.

Trying to cut all the way through carries the risk of continuing through into the plant, and just twisting risks snapping the courgette in two. This is more important if growing yellow courgettes which seem more brittle than geen ones, or for those 'special size' courgettes you find on return from holidays and if you twist them you risk uprooting the entire plant.
