Stuffed with mozzarella, batter dipped and fried in the skillet.

We used:
1 3/4 cup AP Flour
1 tbsp kosher salt
12 oz beer(club soda also works just good)

Rince flowers off and make sure there are no bugs then let dry. Stuff with mozzarella(or ricotta)then into the batter. Sprinkled them with a little salt and paprika after they came out of the skillet. They're good plain but can be dipped in ranch, garlic butter, or wing sauce.

Good lol. Honestly with the batter and little bit of salt that's about all the taste that stood out to me. Not in a bad over powering way though. I saw these on a show I watched a while back and wanted to try them, they didnt disappoint. I will be cooking them again soon
 
Very nice!

Italians use squash flowers for a lot of things, really. I've had them on pizza before. They really don't taste like much....sort of sweet, maybe. This is a great idea though!

I'm assuming that you pick the flowers in the morning. Do they keep fresh through the day so I can cook them at lunch or dinner?
 
This last looks really good. I've always been hesitant because I hate to waste the possibility of a good zucchini and like with green tomatoes I hate to waste a good one. In about to replant and I think I'll add some extra to try this.

I planned to get them at about 9 or 10 but it was closer to 12 before I was able to, and surprisingly it didnt make a huge difference in my opinion. Picking earlier would probably be a little better and then you could set them in the fridge until you're ready to fry them. I think I read they will keep in the fridge for 2 or 3 days but not 100% sure about that. I picked at about 12 and fried them at 3 and they were delicious.
