I do love brewing rose petals with whole leaf black tea, but have never tried putting rose jam in – will do!

I recently made a dish with courgette flowers – not breaded and fried as most recipes recommend, but sauteed in with green courgette ribbons so that the dish is enhanced with bits of bright orange petals: http://thenewgreengrocer.com/2011/08/24/thyme-for-courgettes/

In the middle of reading this I just had to jump up and put some lavender heads into an ice-cube tray, and am already fantasising about making Rose cupcakes with crystallised petals.
I once made a bright green salad of cooked garden peas and broad beans. When they had cooled I added a little lemon juice, olive oil and a handful of blue viola petals.
Yes, eat beauty, I say.
