Edible Flowers: A Kitchen Companion

This is a delightfully presented book of the flowers that can be eaten. There is a recipe for each flower added to my ideas to use each flower. The book perfect for a gift - small, elegant, and great price.

Good reference book

Information about edible flowers is not all that easy to find, but this book tells about many beautiful, but edible flowers. Includes a recipe for each flower.

Cooking Resources From Your Own Garden

Fascinated by the beauty of real flowers used in cake decorating, I decided to buy this book. And I'm glad I did! It is filled with a wealth of information of which flowers can be used for decorating and flavor as well as proper collection techniques and preparation methods. Recipes are also included. The color pictures are quite helpful and will give additional ideas to readers. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something exotic!

Never realized how many edible flowers there were out there.

I am new to working with herbs and have been to a Tea Room several times where edible flowers are frequently used on the dishes. This book is very informative as to the various edible flowers you can plant in your garden and has some great recipes.
