- Prepare the flowers by removing the stamens and spiky sepals.
- Tear each flower vertically into 4 strands.
- Brush to get rid of any dust or possibly insects but don't wash.
- Slice the zucchini into very fine discs as thin as the flower strands.
- Heat the chicken stock and check for seasoning.
- Heat 75g of the butter and all the oil in a large heavy bottom pan and gently fry the onion till soft about 15 to 20 min.
- Add in the rice and off the heat stir till the rice becomes totally coated this only takes a minute.
- Return to the heat add in 2 or possibly so ladlefuls of warm stock or possibly just sufficient to cover the rice and simmer stirring till the rice has absorbed nearly all the liquid.
- Continue to add in more stock as the previous addition is absorbed.
- After about 20 min add in first the zucchini slices and then the flower strands along with the last two or possibly three ladlefuls of stock.
- The zucchini should have a little bite; the flowers will disappear and the rice will have a creamy coating but will remain al dente.
- Add in the remaining butter in small pcs the vermouth parmesan and basil leaves being careful not to overstir.
- This summer risotto with young zucchini and the male zuchini flowers is both delicate and beautiful.
- Serves 6
