We’ve just received something a little out of the box – zucchini blossoms! You may have seen these at your local farmers market, or flicker across your Instagram feed in someone’s backyard harvest dinner. Fear not, they are actually very simple to incorporate into your meals, and can be used in a variety of ways! Scroll down for a few ideas, and if you have some of your own, please comment on this post, or our Facebook page!
1. Mix into a pasta! Cook them into your pasta sauce, or sprinkle over top for added color and effect.
2. Batter and fry them! They can go solo, or you can make them extra delicious by stuffing them with cheese and throwing them in the oven .
3. Bake them or steam them…a healthier alternative to the above.
4. Sautée and add to a quesadilla! Or to anything you want!
5. Soup! There are some amazing zucchini blossom soup recipes out there, and adding a few pieces over top will bring it up to a gourmet-level.
Thanks Kitchn, for these amazing blossom tips!
