Zucchini Flowers 200g

Zucchini Flowers 200g are a genuine seasonal delicacy — fragile, golden-orange blossoms with a delicate, squash-like flavour and a fleeting shelf life that makes them worth using the day you buy them. A restaurant ingredient available at the market.

Look for flowers that are open, vibrant and firm — not wilted or damaged. Zucchini flowers are highly perishable and best used within 24 hours. Store in a single layer in the fridge, loosely covered, until ready to cook.

Stuff with ricotta and herbs and pan-fry in a light batter, sauté in olive oil and fold through a pasta or risotto, use as a garnish on a summer antipasto plate, or add to a frittata just before it sets.
