Aehobak (Korean: 애호박), also called Korean zucchini or Korean courgette,[1][2] is an edible, green to yellow-green summer squash. Although nearly all summer squashes are varieties of Cucurbita pepo,[3] aehobak belongs to the species Cucurbita moschata.[4] Commonly used in Korean cuisine, an aehobak has the shape of zucchini, but with thinner, smoother skin, and more delicate flesh.[5] It is usually sold in shrink-wrapped plastic.[5]
Cultivars of Korean zucchini include 'Seoulmadi', 'Bulam-sacheol', and 'Miso'.[4][6][7]
