For this dish, fresh spring-summer zucchini are imperative. I use a 1-mm. food processor-blade as if it were a mandoline to hand-slice the tender zucchini. Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Preparation Slice zucchini into paper-thin rounds either in a food processor fitted with a 1-mm. blade or with a mandoline or other hand-held slicing device. Arrange zucchini rounds in one layer, overlapping them slightly, on a large (about 8 by 12-inch) platter and sprinkle with arugula. Drizzle oil and vinegar over zucchini and season with salt and pepper. With a vegetable peeler shave curls of Parmesan on top.
