Edible Flowers??

June 13, 2011

Flowers are not only beautiful to look at and fun to grow, we can also eat them! Yes, there are some of these glorious plants that add beauty and spice to salads and vinaigrette such as: begonia, carnations, clover, dandelions, day lilies, lavender and mint just to name a few. The library has great databases to help with this adventure of edible flowers. The Culinary Art Collection and the Gardening, Landscape and Horticulture Collection are great ones to use for edible flower information and recipes.

Pick some flowers and enjoy the flavor.
