browsing: edible flowers
Take your food prep to gourmet level with edible flowers, a fun and easy way to add color and flavor to all sorts of dishes that you can grow and pick from your own garden.
Most edible flowers are best eaten raw — simply pick and rinse with water. Flowers will taste and look their best right after they have opened, rather than after they have been open for a few days.
Just remember that not every flower is edible — some can be poisonous — and avoid flowers that may have been sprayed with an insecticide, fungicide or herbicide.
