Thai Shaved Zucchini Salad

Measure equal parts of white sugar, fish sauce, and fresh lime juice into a big bowl.

Whisk the mixture together until the sugar is dissolved.

Thinly slice one shallot and one jalapeno, then add them to the bowl and mix them around.

Let the mixture hang out for a bit.

Chop up a handful of roasted peanuts and set them aside.

Use a vegetable peeler to shave zucchini or summer squash into thin ribbons, stopping before reaching the seedy middle.

Remove the stems from a bunch of Thai basil and roughly chop it, including any flowers or buds.

Add the shaved squash and chopped basil to the bowl and toss until thoroughly combined with your hands.

Transfer the salad to a serving bowl, top with chopped peanuts, and serve immediately.
