What flowers are edible
This article provides a detailed explanation of what flowers are edible and lists 8 types of summer flowers that can be eaten as vegetables. It is a very useful knowledge about green plants and flowers. It is recommended to collect it!
Jasmine
Summer is the season when jasmine blooms. Each jasmine flower blooms for only 3-5 days, and the blooming period is relatively short. Friends who keep jasmine at home can pick it to make several dishes and taste the fragrance of jasmine flowers.
Note: If making tea, it is best to pick the jasmine flowers that are about to bloom, as they have a stronger fragrance. For cooking, you can pick the fully bloomed jasmine. The most common edible jasmines are double-petal jasmines and single-double pen tips.
1. Jasmine Egg Pancake
Rinse the jasmine flowers 1-2 times and dry the moisture. Beat 2-3 eggs, add the jasmine flowers, and a little salt for seasoning. Add more oil to the pan, heat it to 70-80%, pour in the egg mixture, and fry until both sides are golden. This is a flower dish that I must eat every year, very fragrant~
2. Stir-fried Jasmine
It is stir-fried as a vegetable. I have eaten it in Yunnan restaurants, and it is very refreshing. I wanted to make it myself, but I couldn't make a plate of vegetables because there aren't enough jasmine flowers at home. Those with a lot of jasmine can try it. The buds of flowers about to bloom are better.

3. Jasmine Ice Cubes
Pick the jasmine, rinse it 1-2 times, put it in an ice cube tray (the one that comes with the refrigerator), pour mineral water (drinking water is fine), and freeze it in the refrigerator. You can add it to tea, drinks, or alcohol, and it is very fragrant!
