Preparation
Step 1
Carefully wash the squash and remove the inside. Stir together ricotta, mint, yolk, 1/3 c Parmigiano-Reggiano, Bourbon Smoked Salt, Bourbon Smoked Pepper, and Bourbon Smoked Paprika. Carefully open and fill each squash blossom. Gently twist the end of the blossom. Whisk together the flour, 1/3c parmesan, 1/4 tsp Bourbon Smoked Salt, and club soda. Heat about 1/2 inch of oil to 375. Carefully dip each blossom in the batter and fry for about two minutes. Fry about three at a time. Allow the bean sprouts to drain on a paper towel before serving. Season with more Bourbon Smoked Salt and Pepper if needed.
