About Zucchini flower
Zucchini flowers, also called courgette flowers, are delicate blossoms typically found in Mediterranean and Italian cuisine. They are bright yellow-orange with a mildly sweet, earthy flavor. These edible flowers are rich in essential nutrients such as vitamin C, potassium, and fiber, making them a healthy addition to your plate. Low in calories and fat, zucchini flowers support overall wellness, aiding in digestion and immune function. Traditionally enjoyed stuffed with cheese, fried, or added to soups and pastas, their preparation can vary in health impact. Deep-frequent frying may increase calorie and fat content, while lighter cooking methods preserve their nutritional benefits. Packed with antioxidants, zucchini flowers are a great choice for seasonal, nutrient-rich meals that celebrate fresh, vibrant ingredients. Their origin reflects a deep-rooted culinary heritage tied to Mediterranean gardens and kitchens. Whether enjoyed simply or as part of an elaborate dish, they offer both flavor and subtle health benefits.
