Unique Facts about Nastrium Flowers
It's actually a bit difficult to say. But don't be mistaken, this type of flower contains a lot of nutritional content and can be eaten. I have complete information, let's look at it together. Nasturtiums. This five-petal flower with a smooth texture is a type of edible flower originating from the United States. This flower is safe to consume, both leaves and flowers.
The name nasturtium comes from Latin, namely nasus torsus. Which means nose tickler. Because this plant has a crunchy, spicy and slightly bitter taste, it will stimulate the nose similar to watercress which is crunchy and slightly bitter.
Steemian friends at home can remove the pistil first, to get a taste that is not too bitter.
Before consumption, first wash some flowers gently in water, then wipe until dry. Or dry it on a paper towel to remove any remaining water. Once dry, the flowers are ready to be consumed or processed with other ingredients.
Apart from being able to be eaten directly, these flowers can also be processed with other ingredients. One of them can be made from a butter mixture. To do this, wash the nasturtium flowers in a bowl and press gently. After that, dry the flowers and just pick the petals.
Crush the nasturtium flowers into pieces with wood, then mix with the butter, stir until evenly mixed. Once the mixture is even, pour it onto a plastic twep, make a roll like a lontong, then put it in the refrigerator, so that the texture is not too soft.
Once it is a bit solid, it can be directly spread on plain bread and ready to be consumed as breakfast. This is the coolest preparation for me. I don't think there are any other food preparations made from nasturtium flowers, and the most important thing is the right way to process them. Maybe we make a mistake and don't process it into food. If it's nasturtium, it's best not to do anything with it, because it's a shame for its color, the color is already good, beautiful. This is nasturtium in my opinion, it is not meant to be used as a dish, but to make the dish more beautiful, more beautiful, because of the color of the nasturtium flowers and leaves. Nasturtium leaves are very good, so they can be used as a garnish in cooking.
Because if you look at the color, this flower is very suitable as a garnish. But, don't worry, if you want to process it, you can. This can be one of the ingredients used to make food, plus be a garnish too. How do you make it, I have a wonder recipe. Prepare the notes, OK, follow each step, okay. Just listen .
