Zucchini flowers are the edible blooms of the plant and are a delicacy whether cooked or eaten raw. The flowers are bright yellow in color and have a range of culinary uses, whether stuffed, fried, or added to salads or soups.
The zucchini flowers come in male and female forms – and knowing the difference helps you make informed decisions about which ones to pick. When you are growing zucchini you want to carefully pick these delicate blooms in the morning and eat them as fresh as possible.
