Related to pansies and Johnny jump-ups, violets have a sweet, perfumed flavor. Also called English violet, these sweetly scented flowers were first used in ancient Rome, where they were common in celebratory cuisine. During the Victorian era they were candied, and today they are used primarily in salads, fruit dishes, and desserts.
Immerse blossoms in cool water to flush out any tiny insects, and dry thoroughly in a salad spinner. Add to field greens, or use as a garnish for desserts.
Not available. Edible flowers have not been well-studied for their nutrient content.
