Edible Flowers - a book about visual delight and well-being
Edible Flowers - An Inspiring Guide to Edible Flowers in the Garden
In Danish cuisine, flowers have traditionally not played a major role – but times are changing, and we're beginning to discover how wonderful it can be to include flowers in our meals. It's become clear that we can gain a lot of culinary and aesthetic value from our own gardens and the surrounding nature. In the Nordic region we have a wealth of edible flowers that can both beautify the table and add an unexpected, delicious flavor to dishes.
In this beautifully illustrated book, Anemette Olesen, one of Denmark's most experienced garden and food writers, takes us on a journey through the many edible flowers that grow in our own gardens and the nature around us. Anemette, who has been a pioneer in experimenting with nature's and the garden's edible treasures, shares her best tips and recipes to inspire new and creative ways of using flowers in food.
The book offers a wonderful collection of flowers that can be picked and used both as garnish and for flavor, and it will open your eyes to the culinary possibilities hidden in the garden's floral display. Each flower comes with recipes that make it easy to incorporate them into both everyday and festive meals. From simple floral decorations to more advanced, flower-filled dishes – the book gives you the key to a world of culinary experimentation.
The illustrations by Kirsten Tind create a lovely visual frame for the book and capture the essence of the natural beauty this book celebrates.
