For today’s Italian recipe, we’re going to talk about how to cook pan fried zucchini flowers. Zucchinis are commonly used in Italian cooking, but unfortunately many people are unaware that you can eat the flowers along with the zucchini itself.
For many years I’ve heard of using these flowers in cooking, but only in the last few years did I start to make them for myself. Now it’s a common summer staple and I love knowing I can use all parts of the zucchini!
2. Clean out any dirt and gently rinse and wash the zucchini blossoms, being careful not to tear them too much. Use a bowl of water if that helps, as I mentioned within the post.
