RE: Deep-Fried Wild Black Locust Flowers - A Real Treat!

in #cooking7 years ago

This looks amazing @haphazard-hstead! I have never tasted Black Locust flowers, but we do make a recipe here in Mauritius with Papaya flowers coated with tempura batter and deep fried same like your's.
They are just super delicious!
Btw I just posted my entry in the Steemit culinary challenge where i used 2 types of flowers and aloe vera to make a smoothie! Hope you check it out!
Cheers

I've never had papaya flowers, but they sound good! It's amazing how many good flowers there are to eat, isn't it? Thanks for the heads-up on your culinary challenge post. I will head over there! :D

They actually look like the black locust flowers! The varities of consumable flowers is just wide, sometime we just don't realise it and just ignore!
Same like rose petals, oh my god I just love it when i dry it up with some sugar in the oven in a low temperature! Amazing flavor!
I hope you like the new creation!
Cheers

I'd like to see your papaya flower cooking! I like how you used flowers in your Smoothie for the Culinary challenge - and the aloe vera, too!

I really like using rose petals, too! Every kind can have such a different flavor! I dry some, and I grind some with sugar, but I have never tried the way that you explain. I'll have to try that! I have a Blue Girl rose that has such thick petals and a fantastic perfume. It's great with sugar.

Thank you for such a nice compliment @haphazard-hstead, i had a great time doing this recipe!
By applying some egg-white on the petals + granulated sugar, then dry in oven...Just amazing! The red ones work best though!
