Entity Framework Core–Delete an entity without fetching it first

If you want to minimize the number of roundtrips to the database, here is a quick code snippet to remove an entity without having to fetch it first:

	using(var context=new NorthwindContext())
	{
	var id=1;
	var product= context.Products.Find(id);
	context.Products.Remove(product);
	context.SaveChanges();
	}

Another option is to use a stub:

	using(var context = new NorthwindContext())
	{
	var product = new Product { Id = 1 };
	context.Remove(product);
	context.SaveChanges();
	}
