Squash blossoms
These gentle-flavored flowers are quite versatile. In fact, the entire blossom can be stuffed with ricotta cheese and herbs such as thyme, and then baked. Or for a sweet alternative, stuff it with ricotta and honey. Squash blossoms are a lovely addition to a cold soup made with zucchini and corn. Or you could do as the Mexicans do and include the petals in a quesadilla along with a mild cheese, onions, and garlic.
