>I've looked through all my plant books, and while I know some violets >out there are edible, I'm not sure if: >a. Pansies are part of the violet family Yes, they are a member of the viola family >and >b. Pansies are or are not edible. Yes, they are edible. Kind of like sweet lettuce. >c. And, if they are edible, how would one go about preparing them? Simply pick the flowers, trim the stem off as close to the flower head as possible and scatter them whole on salads, or dip them in a white egg wash and dust them with sugar to use as decorations on cakes. A local store here sells them for about $25.00 per pound =-O ******************************* Natalie McNair-Huff Publisher/Editor Mac Net Journal http://www.blol.com/web_mnj/ *************************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send to: listserv@umslvma.umsl.edu the body message: unsubscribe sqft See http://www.umsl.edu/~silvest/garden/sqft.html for archive, FAQ and more.
