Format:Paperback
I absolutely love this book - it's beautifully illustrated and has lots of really good ideas and recipes, many of which I've tried to great success. The ice-flower bowl on the cover was actually surprisingly easy to recreate and was a really stunning centrepiece for a summer dinner-party dessert. The bergamot wild rice has also become a summer staple in our house... really delicious. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys gardening, cooking, or just really pretty things. Wonderful book!

An absolutely beautifully illustrated book - one for the coffee table - a real talking point. Not sure I'll ever get round to using the ideas though. At the moment I don't have a proper garden so a bit difficult!

The recipes look amazing, and there is plenty of good information on each plant type and how to grow it as well. Definitely, a great all around resource for growing and enjoying edible flowers.

ALMOST EVERYTHING I WAS LOOKING FOR
3 Oct 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is truly a beautiful book!
It has a lot of information on edible flowers: from how to plant them to how to utilize them in your kitchen.
I'd have given it 5 stars if it had a little more history behind each flower, and the medicinal facts behind them.
Great book nonetheless!

Garden of Eatin'
3 Jan 2009
Format:Paperback
"Edible Flowers" is a dazzling cookbook that's Edenic in its depiction of flowers in gardens and their uses for cooking. There are basics of flower&herb gardening,as well as glorious,colorful pictures. From mint leaves in ice water to lavender in French recipes, it shows that flowers not only look good in the garden, but on the plate. It's a feast for the senses. It's a user-friendly cookbook too. "Edible Flowers" is a Garden of Eatin' indeed!
