Looking for a fresh new menu idea using an old classic? Our Zucchini Blossoms are guaranteed to light up anybody’s life! It’s quickly becoming Zucchini and Cucumber season here at AY. Here’s our take on something amazing!
Zucchini Blossoms
Did you know there were male and female zucchini blossoms and that only the females produce the zucchinis. They guys are there just for show.
The female Zucchini blossoms are more rounded at the bottom or at the base, so leave those in your garden, but pick the boys and create great vegetable accents for your next dinner.
The Creation
Simply chop up in very small cubes, a variety of vegetables, including some small zucchini, red & yellow peppers, some peas and mix with a little amount of ricotta or cream cheese and put into blossom area. Simply steam or lightly sautee in butter or a bit of olive oil, but make sure you twist the top of the blossom, once filled, so you don’t loose the contents from the blossom. How fresh and short a season. Enjoy while you can.
