Zucchini Flower (Cucurbita pepo)

Zucchini Flower (Cucurbita pepo) Zucchini flowers are edible. Stuff flowers with herbs and cheese and fry them briefly; dip in light batter and deep fry them; or toss in olive oil until just wilted, then stir through risottos. The flowers don't last so buy and cook them on the same day. Go with cheese, cream, pancetta, pasta, batter.
