If you're looking to make something delicious and creative with zucchini flowers or squash blossoms then I've got a treat for you today. These zucchini flower recipes include stuffed and fried zucchini flowers (but this time with a cacio e pepe filling), a zucchini flower tart and a rainbow chard and zucchini flower salad. There's also a delicious zucchini flower pizza and a focaccia topped with zucchini flowers inspired by Van Gogh's Sunflowers!
Stuffed zucchini flowers are the classic way to serve them and these ones have a twist - a cacio e pepe (cheese and black pepper) filling drizzled with honey. I promise that these are so light, lovely and divine!
This zucchini flower tart is ridiculously easy with few ingredients but I promise that it is worth it because it looks like you went to a lot of trouble but you didn't. And just look at how pretty it is too! :)
This salad recipe is spring in one dish and goes to show how versatile zucchini flowers are! Rainbow chard stems are sautéed with zucchini flowers and then dressed with honey, chilli and a whole burrata!
Everyone loves pizza and while you may occasionally see zucchini flowers atop pizza you'll probably never find stuffed zucchini flowers on a pizza. But this zucchini flower pizza is why I always keep some pizza dough in my freezer as we love it so much!
I mentioned how much people love pizza, and they also love focaccia too! I've got a creative way to use up zucchini flowers with some focaccia art. This is a simple design that relies on the beauty of zucchini flowers to recreate Van Gogh's Sunflowers in food form!
So tell me Dear Reader, do you cook with zucchini flowers much? Which recipe is your pick from the above?
