Call them squash blossoms, zucchini flowers, fiori di zucca, courgettes, or gagoots, but the fact is that they are good and you should try them sometime.
These were picked fresh from Papa Louie’s garden and stuffed with ricotta before being rolled in flour and lightly fried in olive oil. Float over some warm marinara and dig in!
Tip: Fresh blossoms are hard to come by, so be on the lookout in farmer’s markets in early summer before the flowers start to grow into baby zucc’s.
