Elderflowers
Mary Jane and I were talking about the book, 'Stalking the wild asparagus' yesterday and one of us mentioned elder flowers. Today on the way home from work I saw elders in bloom and just coming into bloom. I have always wanted to try elderflower fritters. I've found a recipe and may try on the weekend. Does anyone have recipes for anything else with the flowers. I know you can make cordial but it would require too many flowers. Email me or post here if you have any ideas.

Elderflower fritters.....that sounds magical, like something eaten by trolls and fairies. What kind of batter will you use?
Now I'm wondering about what else trolls and fairies and other enchanting forest inhabitants eat. Wonder if there is a cookbook on this theme? I'm thinking of a whimsical version of Talking the Wild Asparagu.
I forwarded a recips for pumpkin, squash and zucchini flowers to you. It may have been routed to you junk box.
love, mj
