  • 125 ml white wine
  • 125 g flour

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Whisk the white wine and eggs until frothy. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and sugar. Let the batter rest for about 1/2 hour. Add the rum and stir thoroughly again. Dip the zucchini blossoms into the batter and fry them in hot olive oil. They’re very decorative and delicious as a side dish or antipasti. You can also use the batter to make vegetable slices or strips (e.g., celery). Tip: Anything you don’t eat still tastes good cold the next day.
