Eat Your Roses

2011-08-03 09:00:00

We have all enjoyed a cup of chamomile or lavender tea but what about enjoying that cup of tea with a delicious bowl of Rose Petal ice cream?

In her new book “Eat Your Roses,” author Denise Schreiber shares culinary uses and recipes for over 50 edible flowers and takes you on a journey of smells and tastes.  She also shares rules for eating flowers, a list of flowers you should never eat, and advice on harvesting, storing, drying, and preparing your flowers.   You can find her book at your local bookstore or online. You can find edible flowers in the produce section of the grocery store or better yet, grow your own flowers in an edible living wall or rooftop garden.

Be aware some flowers and plants are poisonous and you never want to eat them. Be sure to check the safety of flowers and plants before consuming.  If you are allergy prone it is best to avoid consuming flowers.




San Diego is So Edible

2011-07-20 09:00:00

If you’re like us, summer is by far the best season to enjoy fresh local organic fruits and vegetables. We are big fans of Edible San Diego  a quarterly magazine and website, that provides an intimate view of local food and drink in San Diego. It includes fantastic articles and resources including Farmer’s Markets, CSA’s, recipes, and local foodie events.  Be sure to check out their website or pick up a copy of the latest issue and find some yummy ideas for dinner tonight.
