Recipe Review

Zucchini flowers at the farmers market were irresistable, but I didn't want to fry them. After a bit of looking, I found this recipe - where the flowers are sauteed with caramelized onions. Eggs are cooked (partly on the stove top, finished in the oven, and broiled at the end to melt some cheese. Finally, a basil-mint-lemon juice mixture were sprinkled over the frittata.

These tasted quite nice, and while cooking were beautiful, but they gave no spectacular flavor.

Note that most recipes feature male flowers - no baby zucchini. These that I purchased were from female flower, and had small zucchini attached. I chopped these tiny fruit and sauteed them alongside the flowers.

This was fun and beautiful.
