has anyone else made sweet or savory dishes with flowers? failures? surprises? successes? i realize that not everyone wants to eat flowers btw

plain old green salads with flowers are good and so prettyi've never made one, but i have eaten them
nasturtiums are tasty to eat raw; a bit like radishes
i'd like to try dandelion greens but i hear it's difficult to remove the bitterness

i have this book and it has tons of recipes/ideas but so far i've just sort of thrown things together (haven't used the book until today, we'll see how the shortbread turns out?!)

Beignets de fleurs de courgettes. A specialty of Nice.
My sister makes these zucchini tempura every summer.
In Lyon they make these with acacia flowers.

Lovely!
I really love nasturtiums, but I'm pretty sure I can't grow them here :(
