Recently I broke my right arm…and have been out of commission in the kitchen. Until I have the use of both arms/hands…..I will have to be satisfied with just reading about food.
A friend gave me a very interesting cookbook “The Gourmet’s Garden” by author Anne Gardon. It is a collection of recipes using edible flowers, herbs and berries. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading these recipes and cannot wait to try my hand (when in use again)…with a few…especially the stuffed day lilies.
Here is a list of Anne’s edible flowers:
Anise hyssop (agastache)
Annual sweet pea
Apple blossoms
Bachelor’s buttons (cornflower)
Beebalm
Borage
Calendula
Camomile
Chives
Chrysanthemum
Dandelion
Daylily
Dianthus and pinks
Elderberry
Feverfew matricaria
Geranium
Gladiolus
Hibiscus
Honeysuckle
Hosta
Lavatera
Lavender
Marigold
Nasturtium
Ox-eye daisy
Pansy and violet
Rose
Sunflower
Tulip
Yarrow
Who knew....
