RE: Redbud Flowers - How To Find, Harvest, and Eat Redbud Flowers
guau sounds great if the flowers are endible if a good source for eat.
Here in El Salvador we only have one tree similar to it, the local name is madrecacao
It is the Gliricidia sepium tree it is similar their flowers are endible with fried eggs there is very delicious.
Thanks for shared with us that the plants would be endible their fruit, leaves, flowers and other the wood the young good like bamboo for example.
Other example is our national flower izote Yucca gigantea it os very delicious, it is prepared fried with tomatoes and onion, or if you prefer you boiled it and enjoy with lemon and salt, guau very delicious it is a little bitter the flavour.
People say what the salvadoream people do not respect their national flower they eat it !!!!!!
We say it is a complete respect. It is delicious :-)
Thanks mr for this beautiful topics.
Eating your flowers is complete respect, I agree 100%. Especially your national flower! I will be eating some Yucca flowers this week, too. But they aren't the exact same species as yours. There are Cercis canadensis varieties that are native to northern Mexico. I wonder how they would do in El Salvador. It's nice that you have other legume trees with good flowers to eat! I would like to read about you using your Yucca and Gliricidia flowers! Yay for edible flowers!
Nice thanks when i have the oportunity i will cooked it and post it for show how is the process of gliricidia and yuca, yuca is more near because is winter and gliricida flowers are in around autoom as i am a make a mistake.
Great!

I just posted an article about using my yucca flowers for lunch this weekend - Comfort Food with Yucca Flowers. It was really good! I'm using them in other ways, too.
I want to read how you enjoy your Yucca flowers. There must be many traditional recipes from El Salvador that use them!
Best of luck with your studies and getting your certificate for work. And enjoy your foraging when you have time! :D
