Petal Pushers: The Beauty of Edibles. Flower Power Series Part Eight
In this episode of 'In The Garden With Susan", I get into some interesting edible flowers that are off the beaten path.
I talk about:
Mullein (Verbascum thapsus)
Edibility: Mild, slightly sweet, aromatic.
Uses: Brewed in teas for soothing respiratory problems, infused in oils for earaches and skin inflammations, added to salads and desserts for color and mild flavor.
Preservation: Dried for teas or infused in oils.
Onion Flowers (Allium species)
Edibility: Mild onion flavor.
Uses: Garnishes for salads and soups, flavoring in vinegars and oils, lightly sautéed in dishes.
Preservation: Dried, pickled, or frozen.
Dill Flowers (Anethum graveolens)
Edibility: Slightly stronger dill flavor than the leaves, sweet and grassy.
Uses: Used in pickling, flavoring soups and stews, making flavored vinegars or oils.
Preservation: Dried or frozen, can also be used to make dill flower vinegar.
Snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus)
Edibility: Mild, slightly bitter.
Uses: Garnishing salads, desserts, and cocktails, used in decorative ice cubes.
Preservation: Dried for decorative purposes or used in crafts.
Radish Flowers (Raphanus sativus)
Edibility: Mildly spicy.
Uses: Garnishing salads, soups, sandwiches, and butter/cream cheese spreads.
Preservation: Best used fresh but can be stored briefly in the refrigerator or frozen in ice cubes.
Hollyhock (Alcea rosea)
Edibility: Very mild, slightly vegetal.
Uses: Edible garnish on salads, desserts, and cakes, dried for teas.
Preservation: Dried or frozen in floral ice cubes.
Magnolia (Magnolia spp.)
