Most sellers just let the blossoms become the squash, but if they know you want the blossoms, they might get you some.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14748231341500700924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1555929730378028813.post-52059452385821924072008-09-26T18:01:00.000-04:002008-09-26T18:01:00.000-04:00I'm desperate to try these but I can't get them an...I'm desperate to try these but I can't get them anywhere, maybe I'll grow my own next year!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04554151962924841103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1555929730378028813.post-71087774316418243422008-09-25T14:55:00.000-04:002008-09-25T14:55:00.000-04:00Oh, Mary, that's too bad about your squash. What ...Oh, Mary, that's too bad about your squash. What a shame to have missed out on both. I hate that powder mildew--I once had a lovely jasmine tree that suffered from it.<BR/><BR/>Evidently the female blossoms are the only ones that turn into the actual vegetable; the male blossoms (which are what I bought) never become anything more than the flower, so they can be eaten with abandon without sacrificing the vegetable crop... hence their plentiful presence at my farmer's market.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14748231341500700924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1555929730378028813.post-1947876851085151262008-09-24T22:18:00.000-04:002008-09-24T22:18:00.000-04:00I thought about stuffing and frying my squash blos...I thought about stuffing and frying my squash blossoms this summer, but I decided that I would rather have squash. As luck would have it my squash plants developed powder mildew and promptly all died. As a result, very little squash and no blossoms eaten. It was fairly depressing. Now I know to eat a few blossoms.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924161328076804836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1555929730378028813.post-66609989525022104412008-09-24T20:09:00.000-04:002008-09-24T20:09:00.000-04:00Thank you, Andy! :)Thank you, Andy! :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14748231341500700924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1555929730378028813.post-68777686365959425832008-09-24T17:22:00.000-04:002008-09-24T17:22:00.000-04:00I had fried squash blossoms in Italy a couple time...I had fried squash blossoms in Italy a couple times and they were amazing.
