Ricotta-Stuffed Squash Blossoms
Wikipedia references several contributors "Squash blossoms may be stuffed,[2][4] battered and fried,[2][4] or made into soup.[2][5] The flowers have a subtle flavor, reminiscent of young zucchinis, and can be eaten raw.[6] The flowers are also frequently stuffed and cooked (Greek language: Kolokythoanthoi, Turkish language: Kabak çiçeği dolması). Such dishes belong to a family of stuffed vegetable dishes, dolma, in the cuisine of the former Ottoman Empire. The stuffing frequently includes a soft cheese, such as ricotta.[4][7][8] In the Campania and Latium regions of Italy and in some parts of Catalonia (Spain) they are frequently made into fritters. Its use is extensive in Mexican cuisine, especially in Central Mexico, where it is used for soups and as a filling for quesadillas.
