Gently open the blossoms, remove the stamens if desired, and pat the petals dry.
Mix ricotta, mozzarella, anchovy, basil, salt, and pepper, then spoon a small amount into each blossom and twist the tips closed.
Whisk flour, egg, cold sparkling water, and a pinch of salt into a light batter.
Dip the filled blossoms in batter and fry in hot oil until puffed, pale golden, and crisp.
