Fried Zucchini Flowers
There have been books written on the zucchini blossom. The forerunner of the ever-burgeoning mottled cylinder, is edible. More than edible, it's delicious in an Earth Mother kind of way. That which some just chuck away as waste, can in fact become a delectable antipasto, or be part of a pasta condiment or even a salad element (I never disdain fresh flowers tossed in with my salad greens). Now that they're blooming on farmer's markets everywhere, gather those blossoms while you can and prepare for a true Roman tastebud epiphany.
