edible flowers
« on: July 30, 2012, 21:43 »
Does any one else grow flowers just for adding to salads ect I do love nasturtiums and cannot reist the flowers and leaves in a salad whilst the seeds go into a chutney/pickle .  Of course there are also the marigold flowers

panseys violets and violas, all campanulas leaves mainly, begonia sempreflorens in small quantities.
Joy larkom recomends radish seed pods going to give them ago later. I'm trying lablab beans but its too cold for them you can eat the flowers and beans.

you can also use the flowers from courgette plants in salads or stuff them with ricotta cheese and fry them. Yummy.
