Oh yum. I grow lots of zucchini and love to cook the flowers. We always fried them but this sound really yummy.

Pumpkin flowers are good too. Have you ever had fiddle heads? They are the new beginnings of those ferns that grow wild in the woods. They look like a boston fern. When the frost leaves you go out and pick them just as they are coming up. Timing is important.

Then sautee in garlic, butter and olive oil. Sometimes I'll sprinkle a little feta.

Damn I'm hungry. You can buy them frozen but it's not the same.
