– fried squash blossom –
we recently made some fried squash blossoms from our garden that were delicious! we were getting frustrated over the amount of flowers falling off our plants but it turns out they were male flowers that don’t grow fruit. gub remembered having fried squash blossoms in italy so we found a recipe and did some frying.
to make these tasty treats, first gather and clean some squash flowers. next dip the flowers in egg and batter before frying them up in some oil at medium heat. it’s the same as frying anything, you’ll just want to use a light batter since the flowers are so delicate. we went with corn meal and loved it!

the female flowers are pricey, we saw them at a farmers market recently for $3.50 each. who would have thought?

how do you tell the difference between male and female

thanks for writing! the female flowers, which grow into the actual squash vegetable, tend to be smaller and closer to the center of the plant. the male flowers are bigger and generally at the end of the stalks. so the big yellow flowers that are very visible on the outer parts of the plant are the male flowers. check out this website below for more info and some helpful photos.

Yes very Italian they are and you can sell the bigger female flowers for quite a bit which we did last summer at the farm I worked at.
