TARTALOM ISMERTETő

Eating flowers might appear unconventional, but we often consume them without even realizing it. Consider artichokes, for instance: they are essentially large, unopened flowers. Capers are the preserved buds of flowers soaked in vinegar, and cloves are dried flower buds. We also find courgette flowers, saffron pistils, orange blossom water used to flavor pastries, and the violet sweets that evoke memories of our childhood. In addition to adding aesthetic appeal and providing a dose of vitamins to our plates, flowers elevate the flavors of a dish and can even serve as a vegetable substitute.
