Steps:
- Place the ricotta in a strainer lined with cheesecloth over a bowl and let drain in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Discard liquid.
- Combine the strained ricotta and shredded pork in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Fill each squash blossom with the pork-cheese mixture and twist the top of the blossom to secure the filling while frying.
- Fill a large, heavy saucepan halfway with oil and heat on the stove until the temperature reaches 360 degrees F.
- Dredge each filled squash blossom in the rice batter to coat completely. Fry the squash blossoms in batches until lightly golden brown, turning once. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
- Drizzle some of the black pepper vinaigrette in the center of a serving plate and place 2 squash blossoms on top for each serving. Serve hot.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Place pork cubes in a medium roasting pan. Stir together the BBQ sauce, vinegar, and onion and then pour mixture over the pork and season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan with foil and cook in the oven for 3 1/2 to 4 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Let cool in the braising liquid, then drain the liquid from the meat and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces.
- Whisk together water and flour until smooth and season with salt. Let sit 10 minutes before using.
- Combine vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, and honey in a blender. With the machine running, slowly add the oil until emulsified.
OVEN ROASTED STUFFED SQUASH BLOSSOMS
Oven roasting the squash blossoms, instead of frying, makes this a nice light summer dish. Pick your squash blossoms early in the day, and store in the fridge until ready to use. Top with some fresh basil pesto for added yum!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium heat; add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in chard and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. Add basil, salt, and pepper, and cook until basil is soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Place cooled chard mixture between 2 towels and press to remove excess moisture.
- Stir chevre and chard mixture together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Fill zucchini blossoms about 3/4 full with the goat chevre mixture, and pinch the ends closed. Place filled blossoms in a roasting pan; drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Roast in the preheated oven until blossoms are hot, about 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat. Heat about 4 inches of oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over direct heat until it reaches 350 degrees F.
- Combine the ricotta, parsley and lemon zest in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Place a tablespoon of the filling into each zucchini blossom, sealing them by bringing the petals up around the filling and giving them a little twist.
- Season the flour with salt and pepper, then dredge the blossoms first in the flour, then in the eggs and then again in the flour, being sure to shake off any excess flour.
- Working in batches if needed, carefully drop the blossoms into the oil. (Make sure not to overcrowd the pan.) Cook until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the blossoms to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and season lightly with sea salt. Serve immediately.
- (Alternatively, you can fry the blossoms over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)
RICE WITH SQUASH BLOSSOMS
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- 1. To prepare the blossoms, cut off the stems and remove the green petals at the base of the flowers. Pinch off the stamen inside the blossoms. Rinse gently and gently shake off excess water. Chop crosswise about 1/2 inch thick and then lengthwise the same. Reserve. 2. In a wide 2-quart saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat and cook the onion, stirring, until the onion softens, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until the rice is opaque and starts to change color, but doesn't brown, about 3 minutes. Add the broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let rice stand 5 minutes. Then fluff with a fork. 3. While the rice cooks, melt the butter in a skillet until it foams. Add the reserved squash blossoms and salt. Cook, stirring, over medium heat, until the blossoms are tender and the juices are absorbed, 6 to 8 minutes. When the rice is cooked, gently fold the cooked blossoms into the rice. Serve hot.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Yield Risotto with Squash Blossoms
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a boil, reduce heat to low, and keep at a bare simmer.
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy 4-quart saucepan over medium heat; add leeks, onions, and garlic, and saute, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until soft but not browned, about 6 minutes. Add rice, and continue stirring until the edges of the rice are translucent, about 3 minutes. Add wine, and cook, stirring constantly, until nearly all the wine is absorbed, about 30 seconds.
- Raise the heat to medium high. Add salt and pepper to taste, and about 1/2 cup of the simmering stock; cook, stirring constantly, until nearly all the stock is absorbed. Continue adding stock, about 1/2 cup at a time; adjust seasonings. Cook, stirring constantly, allowing each addition to be nearly absorbed before adding the next, until the rice is creamy but slightly firm in the center, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, fry the squash blossoms. Heat olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until very hot, but not smoking. Prepare batter, by combining egg yolk, milk, flour, and 2 tablespoons cold water with a whisk. Dip each blossom in the batter and gently transfer to the hot oil. It will be necessary to do this in small batches. Fry until crispy and light brown, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Roughly chop six of the cooked squash blossoms, and gently combine with the cooked rice. Divide the risotto among four plates, and garnish with the remaining fried whole squash blossoms. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Combine chicken stock and 2 1/2 cups water in a medium saucepan, place over medium-low heat, and bring to a simmer. Quarter each blossom lengthwise, and cut in half crosswise; set aside.
- Heat olive oil in another medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots, season with salt and pepper, and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add rice, and cook, stirring, until slightly opaque, about 2 minutes. Add wine, and cook, stirring constantly, until almost all the wine is absorbed, about 30 seconds.
- Add about 1/2 cup of the simmering stock to the rice, increase heat to medium high, and cook, stirring constantly, until nearly all the stock is absorbed. Continue adding stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and letting each addition be nearly absorbed before adding the next.
- After about 10 minutes, add sliced squash; continue cooking, adding stock until rice is creamy looking and each grain is tender but slightly firm in the center. This process will take 15 to 20 minutes.
- Stir in the blossoms, butter, and Parmesan, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in basil, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, and serve immediately, garnished with basil sprigs.

Steps:
- Make the batter: Stir, using a whisk, 1 cup flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk the egg and the beer together in a small bowl. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture, stirring constantly with a fork, until almost combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Fill and fry the blossoms: Heat oil in a 4-quart Dutch oven fitted with a deep-fat thermometer over medium-high heat to 375°F Gently open the petals of the blossoms using a paring knife and carefully remove the pistils without tearing the petals. Combine the remaining flour and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl, add the cheese, and toss until the cubes are coated. Place one cube inside each blossom and twist the ends to close. Dip blossoms, holding them at the petal end, one at a time into batter. Wipe excess batter from blossom against the side of the bowl.
- Carefully ease 3 blossoms into hot oil and fry, turning once with a slotted spoon until golden brown - about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack. Repeat with remaining blossoms. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
