Is that this not the prettiest factor you’ve ever seen? Flower Butter is the right method so as to add some coloration to the dreary days of winter and welcome spring. How fabulous would this be for a Wonderland-themed get together?
Pansies, dianthus, nasturium, roses, and marigolds are all edible flowers. I largely used pansies right here, with just a few rose petals and a little bit of dianthus, mint leaves, and lavender leaves thrown in for selection. Pansies are the right flower to develop within the winter as a result of they’re chilly hardy, cheap, and so enjoyable to make use of within the kitchen!
You possibly can use this flower butter technique on a savory herb butter when you favor however I did a pleasant orange honey butter, good for scones, pancakes, waffles, or simply to take pleasure in on toast.
