Moringa is an amazing tree. All parts are edible and the flowers smell so fragrant while on the tree, and can be cooked then taste like mushrooms. High nutrient dense leaves and those yummy pods that taste like asparagus when young. Moringa is one of my favourite trees. So easy to grow ( fast growing) and such a nutrition provider. thanks for your post.

Yes I love Moringa so much! It is definitely my favorite tree to grow and is very fast paced! I didnt know the flowers taste like mushrooms! Ill have to give that a try! Do you boil the pods for a few hours? Sounds like you know more than me! I just eat the leaves raw for now.

Eating raw leaves is excellent - when young and tender the pods can be steamed for about 15 mins - they are delicious!! The leaves, bark, flowers, fruit, seeds, and root are used to make medicine. too.
