TIA Sun Apr 26 18:11:42 -0700 2009 286430 mtb 1 4630889 I've only ever seen them in the middle of summer when it's growing season in Quebec. I'd imagine they'd be too delicate to be shipped in, but maybe someone else knows otherwise. In summer they have them at the Birri stand at the Jean-Talon market.

Might check if Louie at JTM imports them as he sometimes has off-season goodies. Am in the process of planning a zucchini-themed dinner and thought this would be a nice twist for an app... maybe a carpaccio of sorts if the flower mission fails.

Sun Apr 26 18:38:45 -0700 2009 4630933 66614 kpzoo 4 4630977 I know, an odd time for such a theme. But it was a special request, complete with iron-chef secret-ingredient dramatic reveal. I was actually thinking fritters, maybe with some interesting spicing; coriander, fennel, cumin? Sun Apr 26 18:47:50 -0700 2009 4630955 286430 mtb 5 4631002 Will there be chocolate zucchini cake? For the flowers, good luck since I've never seen them off season either. But calling a few high end grocers to check wouldn't hurt.
