Tempura Fried, Triple Cheese Stuffed Squash Blossoms<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
9 to 15 Squash Blossoms (Depending on size you may have leftover filling), anthers gently removed from inside and rinsed)<\/p>\n
1\/3 Cup Full Fat Ricotta Cheese<\/p>\n
2 T. Parmesan Cheese, Grated<\/p>\n
2 T. Asiago Cheese, Grated<\/p>\n
6 Large Basil Leaves, Minced<\/p>\n
\u2153 Cup All Purpose Flour<\/p>\n
\u00bd Tsp. Baking Powder<\/p>\n
\u2153 Cup Seltzer (*Or carbonated drink of choice – I used a lemon sparkling water I had on hand)<\/p>\n
Frying Oil of Choice (I used a vegetable oil)<\/p>\n
Extra basil and black pepper for topping, sauce for dipping (I enjoy raw honey)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a small mixing bowl, combine together the ricotta, asiago and basil.\u00a0 Set aside. Start to warm your oil on medium heat in a frying ban. You want about an inch of oil in the pan. While the oil is warming, gently stuff your squash blossoms (be VERY careful with this) with 1 to 1 1\/2 tsp. of cheese\/basil filling depending on the blossom\u2019s size. I use a small 1\/4 tsp. to do this. Some people will pipe the mix in. Twist the ends of the blossoms gently to close. Do not over stuff the blossoms or they may leak during frying. Once squash blossoms are filled, set aside. In a small bowl, mix all-purpose flour and baking powder. Mix the seltzer in slowly in a few parts until everything is well combined and forms the tempura coating.\u00a0 Next, gently dip your squash blossoms in the tempura mix to evenly coat. Let extra tempura mix drip off. I rested these on parchment paper. Line a plate with paper towel\/cloth towel or have a cooling rack with towel underneath ready (my favorite way to cool\/drain these so they don\u2019t get soggy). Add blossoms gently to heated oil (I did two rounds not to overcrowd). Gently brown on each side and flip in oil until all sides are crispy and lightly browned. Place blossoms on towel or cooling rack, repeat process as needed and allow to cool. Serve blossoms with extra basil, black pepper and dipping sauce of choice if desired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
