[ Product Story ]

An illuminating guide to the use and cultural history of edible flowers, featuring beautifully original photography, recipes and thoughtful essays from leading voices.

This stunning guide to edible flowers, conceived by Monica Nelson, is packed with information and features lush original photography. Organising more than 100 flowers alphabetically by their common name, the book offers in each entry handy reference notes including the flower’s Latin name, flavour profile, origins, and which parts of the plant are edible, all accompanied by a vibrant photographic portrait.

Punctuated by simple recipes and short, essayistic moments written by a diverse roster of celebrated chefs, artists and writers recalling the use of edible flowers in their creative and gastronomic histories, Edible Flowers is both a practical primer and a delightful read.
