RE: Wild Spring Pancake - Shrubs, Trees, Tubers, and Weeds - with Forsythia and Maple Flowers

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Thanks for resteeming, @cognoscere. I am surprised every year at how fast the forsythia flowers come and go. Even in the best years! But since I learned that their flowers are edible, I try to get out and appreciate them more while they are blooming. Now their season still seems fast, but because I spend time with them, it slows down, too. They don't just flash by as a spot of yellow for a few days. It's weird, but real, lol.

Like so many plants, I'm not a fan of just eating their flowers by themselves. They are a little sweet, with a little bitter. And there is variation across plants. But it's fun to add them into salads and other food. Keep that phytonutrient density and diversity up, lol! ; )
