zucchini flowers

This morning, I picked 30 zucchini flowers (including pumpkin flowers, too). I immediately removed the pistil and the little bugs. Then, I placed a piece of monterey Jack cheese in each. I am waiting for them to wilt naturally to twist the ends of the petals, dip into egg, then bread crumbs and fry. This is an experiment as when I've waited til later in the day to de-pistilize (new word) and stuff, it is harder. Anyway, tonight's dinner will include one of my favorite dishes!

well, so far the new way has worked. the flowers wilted and were able to be twisted closed easily. I will ask my DD to take pics later and I'll post them.
