Now that we are ready to cook, let the ideas roll in!
Usage of flowers is so varied; they can accompany anything from hors d'oeuvres to dessert. Flowers are perfect garnishes for salty and sweet dishes, and petals add a nice flavour and look to salads. Try making a salad mix of veggies and fruits, and throw in some flowers as well. This will add to the beauty of such a varied salad, and will add a unique flavour to the sensation of the combined sweetness and saltiness.
Herbal butters have never looked prettier with flower petals mixed into them, and most batters will only be upgraded with a flower mixed into them.
Imagine the beauty of crepes with some lavender flowers spread throughout! Drinks will look sharp with flowers frozen into ice cubes, while teas are delicious with aromatic flowers. Adding some rose jam to your tea is also a delicious option of sweetening your tea, so think of the jams you can make from flowers.
Once you start cooking with flowers, you can be so much more creative in your cooking, with results that all notice and love.
Every cook likes to heighten her/his experience and always looks for new ways to improve and change. Flowers are a wonderful step to this, as they are easy to cook with, add beauty and aroma, and help the imagination flow to create more and more interesting recipes.
Flowers have long been used in cooking, and what luck that the fashion is coming back.
Our dishes will be tastier, more attractive, and richer in aroma. Learn which flowers you can cook with, and, upon buying them, be sure that they have been grown to be eaten and stick to using the petals of the flowers.
Keep in mind that many flowers used as garnishes are often only decorative. For instance, many live flowers used to decorate wedding cakes are not for consumption.
However, when you are cooking with flowers you know to be good for eating, let your imagination run, and you will create a myriad of dishes that are enhanced and beautified by the flower garden you have added into them!
