Courgette Flowers
London delivery in our own vans · non-perishables shipped across mainland UK
Courgette flowers are a delicate seasonal ingredient with a mild, fresh flavour and elegant appearance.
Highly prized in Italian and Mediterranean cooking, courgette flowers are perfect for stuffing, frying, baking or using as a refined garnish. Their tender petals and subtle vegetable flavour pair beautifully with ricotta, mozzarella, herbs, anchovies, lemon, olive oil and light batters.
A premium fresh produce ingredient for restaurants, delis, fine dining menus and seasonal Italian dishes.
Serving suggestion:
Stuff with ricotta, mozzarella or herbs, then lightly batter and fry until crisp. Also excellent baked, added to risotto, served with pasta, or used as an elegant garnish for antipasti and summer plates.
About Deliciously Fine Foods
About Deliciously Fine Foods
Italian food, from inside London's market
Since 2016 we've supplied London's restaurants and food shops from New Covent Garden Market, where the city's kitchens buy their food while most of us are still asleep. Deliciously Fine Foods opens the same larder to yours, in three ways.
We bring it to you
We import charcuterie, cheese, preserves, olive oil, pasta and truffles from artisan family producers in Italy, including Subissati, curing salumi in the hills of Roccastrada, and Maremma in Barattolo on the Tuscan coast. We know every one of them personally. Our founder, Luigi, sits in on their planning meetings when new products are developed, so we know how things are made long before they reach the shelf.
We cook for you
In 2025 we opened our own kitchen at the market to cook with what we import: slow sauces, soups, trays to reheat at home. Some dishes are made to order, so they reach you fresh rather than after a week in a fridge.
We come to you
Our chefs can bring our produce and our skills into your home, for a dinner you actually get to sit down at. Meet our chefs →
How it reaches you
In Central London we deliver ourselves, by electric cargo bike, which overtakes the traffic more often than you'd think. The rest of the UK mainland goes by courier, and our wines come from our cellar in Fulham. No minimum order.
