Squash Blossom Suggestions
In Italy, squash blossoms are usually stuffed with a mild cheese such as fresh mozzarella, chvre or ricotta, dipped in batter and deep-fried. Prepared in this manner, they make a delicious appetizer or accompaniment to an al fresco meal of poultry or salad.
Saute some chopped garlic and scallions in unsalted butter, then add thin slices of summer squash, fresh corn kernels and just enough chicken stock to make a light sauce. Saut until just cooked through, throw in a handful of julienned squash blossoms and basil until wilted, and season to taste, adding more butter if necessary to enrich the sauce. Toss with cooked fresh fettucine.
