I've been doing some research on the web about edible flowers and some articles suggest a few people may have flower allergies, and more prone if eating the pollen or inner bit of the flower. I generally use the whole flower as decoration (which I don't generally eat) and scatter petals into the salad, etc (which I would eat). Good to know you eat the whole thing!Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263430746482725687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-732676481099375924.post-80812667434014386482010-10-04T11:59:43.428-07:002010-10-04T11:59:43.428-07:00Why do you say remove the centre of nasturtium flo...Why do you say remove the centre of nasturtium flowers?
