Candied Zucchini Slices and Crystallized Squash Blossoms

By Barbara Llewellyn Catering and Event Planning

Candied Zucchini Slices
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
Zucchini slices (thinly sliced)

Bring above ingredients to a boil for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and drop thinly sliced zucchini slices into simmering simple syrup. Simmer for 2-3 mintues until zucchini becomes translucent. Remove with a slotted spoon, placing slices onto parchment paper to air dry.

Crystallized Squash Blossoms
With a very small paint brush, brush all surfaces of flowers with egg white. Toss flowers in superfine sugar and air dry until crispy.
