Taste of Tuesday

Sunflower buds are edible! (Photo source)

I'm all about getting as much out of food as possible and thus avoid waste. Here's a great list of edible flowers. Use them to add flavor, color, and texture to foods. One flowering plant that's not mentioned is broccoli. Just because a head of broccoli has started blooming doesn't mean you can't eat it. In fact, one fellow farmer insists that it tastes better when the little yellow blooms appear.

Bon appetit!
