Producer and format
The product is supplied under the Spirito designation. The professional format is one 1 kg pack of frozen zucchini flowers.
Organoleptic profile
Zucchini flowers have a tender texture and a mild, delicate vegetable flavour. Their light profile works with cheese fillings, simple batters and recipes where the blossom should remain recognisable.
Professional uses and dosing
Use the flowers according to the recipe and the desired coverage. They can be filled with cheese or another savoury filling, fried in batter, grilled or added to pizza, pasta and risotto; portion by the preparation to suit the preparation.
Common mistakes to avoid
Avoid excess moisture when frying and do not overload a batter or filling. Handle the frozen blossoms gently, use them according to the pack directions and avoid repeated temperature changes.
Storage and handling
Keep the pack frozen and protect the cold chain. Remove only the quantity required for preparation, close the pack promptly and follow the packaging directions for thawing and use.
