Edible flowers are not just fancy restaurant fare or delicate decorations for tiered cakes.
Some of them can be used in many everyday dishes like the humble squash blossom.
Squash blossoms are edible flowers from the squash plant. They taste a bit like squash and are rich in beta-carotene, Vitamin C, and calcium.
They are also highly perishable and must be consumed or cooked immediately.
Chef Kathrine Donila shared two of her recipes using these squash blossoms.
