Patty Pan Sunburst

This patty pan is tender and tasty and bright yellow. Patty pan comes in yellow, green, and white varieties. The squash is most tender when relatively immature; it is generally served when it is no more than two to three inches in diameter. In fine cuisine, its tender flesh is sometimes scooped out and mixed with flavourings such as garlic prior to reinsertion; the scooped-out husk of a patty pan also is sometimes used as a decorative container for other foods. Patty pan is a good source of magnesium, niacin, and vitamins A and C. One cup contains approximately 20 to 30 calories and no fat. It is often sliced, coated and fried until golden brown. In Polish cuisine they are pickled in sweet vinegar.
