2-5 hrs
ingredients
2 medium zucchini
1 teaspoon tarragon or white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup packed fresh parsley sprigs
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1 package (3 ounce size) cream cheese, softened
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
directions
Line medium-size bowl with double thickness of cheesecloth.
To extract some moisture from zucchini, coarsely grate unpeeled zucchini into prepared bowl. Sprinkle with vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt. Toss gently, cover, and set aside for 1 hour.
In a food processor with chopping blade, process parsley and chives until very finely chopped. Gather ends of cheesecloth and squeeze zucchini to drain out as much liquid as possible.
Add drained zucchini to processor and process until smooth. Add softened cream cheese, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, and the pepper. Process until well-combined.
Press zucchini pate into a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
