Name some flowers which are edible.  |
|
 I know marigold, rose etc. But I never practically use it. Do you use flowers in your recipe? Please name flowers which are edible. If possible then suggest its uses in day-to-day menu.

1.  Galena (2963) | 9 months ago |  my favourite is Borage. Boragio Officianalis.
it's a herb with beautiful deep blue star shaped flowers. both the flowers and leaves taste cucumbery and are edible. lovely in summer drinks like Pimms. or in salads.

| Galena (2963) | 9 months ago | another that's really nice are the flowers of courgette plants. they look lovely on the end of the courgette too. but you can cut them, stuff them, and cook them. | |

| 3. carmelanirel (5261) | 9 months ago |  Though considered a weed, dandelions are edible, just you don't want to eat too many. After soaking them in salt water, you just use a mixture of flour,corn meal and seasonings, like when you deep fry mushrooms and fry them..
And of course clovers are edible. I also take dandelion and clovers and juice them with carrots, makes a great energy drink for spring cleaning.
Another flower that I recently found was edible, is the flowers on the red bud tree.. You would really have to collect many to get a serving, so I just pick some as I go by and they taste like a sweet lettuce..I think they would be great on salads, I may try it this year..

| Modestah (7428) | 9 months ago |  hey, thanks for a very informative post... we have red bud around us and I did not know this about them, I am anxious to give them a try this spring, now.
aren't violets also edible?
| |
|
|
| carmelanirel (5261) | 9 months ago | I don't know about violets. Actually it would be nice if a herbalist would respond. Because like I said about the dandelions, some flowers, though they are edible, can be dangerous if you eat too many, especially if they have medical tendencies..
Though I also wondered about roses. The Turkish Delight that they had in the Narnia movie? It calls for rose water and I wondered how that was made, with roses? petals or leaves? I would like to know that.. | |

| 4. Modestah (7428) | 9 months ago | I had no idea that a marigold would be edible...
my son is really up on such topics and he has given me various blossoms to try -
I think one is called nesturcians which had a bit of a peppery flavor
he has also given me a lily blossom I think it was from a day lily, probably stella d'ora??
Squash blossoms are tasty as well.
I am sure there are countless others - | |

| 5. pergammano (664) | 9 months ago |  hAVE YOU TRIED THE peppery flavour of nasturtiums/leaves/flowers in a salad? I also make the best tasting capers out of nasturtium seeds. So much cheaper and just as good.

6.  brimia (6166) | 9 months ago |  I've used sugared nasturtiums on top of cupcakes. I've used dandelion leaves in salad and have heard the flowers can be used for wine.

7.  jimbelle (293) | 7 months ago |  Aside from cauliflower and broccoli the most popular and versatle among the edible flowers is the rose. I read it can be made into wine, cake added to soup and salad. It can be fried just like the Japanese Tempura. I have not eaten them yet. I will try it one of these days.
