Herb - English Lavender Munstead English Lavender Munstead flowers profusely in the spring, after which a good pruning will provide an attractive gray bush with highly aromatic leaves. Lavender flowers have a rich sweet flavor and are especially good when used with sweets. Add a tablespoon of finely chopped lavender flowers to any sugar or butter cookie recipe or add two tablespoons to any pound cake or white cake. Munsteads are also good for butters and cream cheese recipes. Pick the edible flowers when just opened and not when they start to turn brown. Waiting even a day or two to pick, can affect the flavor. Pull the flowers away from the little brown or green cap that they are attached to. |
