Preparation steps

1.

Carefully remove the stamens from the centers of the zucchini flowers. Next, remove the small green sepals below the petals. Gently rinse the zucchini flowers in cold water and drain. Cut the blossoms into fan shapes, while leaving them attached to the zucchini.

2.

Rinse the salmon, pat dry and chop finely. In a bowl, stir together the salmon, ricotta, egg yolk, lemon zest and thyme, and  season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture between the zucchini blossoms and twist the ends to seal them. Season with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet and fry the zucchini blossoms until golden, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the blossoms from the heat and drizzle with the lemon juice and vinegar. Garnish with basil before serving.
