1. Preheat oven to 350 degree. Layer the zucchini in a colander, sprinkling each layer with salt; let stand for 20min. Rinse, then pat dry.

3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over med high heat. Add the zucchini and cook turning, until golden, about 5 min. Stir in the dill and remove from the heat; let cool to room temp.
4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, ricotta, Parmesan and half and half; season with salt, pepper, nutmeg. Stir into the zucchini. Pour the mixture into the chilled pastry crust and sprinkle with more Parmesan. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 10 min. Let cool slightly before slicing.
