Can I cook (tempura/fry) the flowers of the wild pumpkin vine?

I have only tried the flowers uncooked, they wew slightly sweet an aromatic I think cooking them would destroy the flavour.

Can I cook (tempura/fry) the flowers of the wild pumpkin vine?
Yes you can, and they are tasty!
Reply:With all the other good things to cook and eat why would you want to be eatting vines.
Reply:Is the wild pumpkin a member of the curcurbit family like a domestic pumpkin? If it is I'd think you could eat the flowers seeing the flowers of squash, pumpkin, zuccinni and probably even gourds are edible.

Reply:I have some rose bushes in my yard. One is white and the other is pink tipped in yellow. I have some cut roses in a vase and they are blush roses. I love wild flowers just as much. I have some places staked out in the woods where I can find all kinds of delicate wild flowers. I am pretty much a flower lover, I have at least 100 different kinds in my yards.

Keith Anderson -- "Pickin' Wildflowers"





hey baby, what you doing this evening


can you meet me down at the railroad tracks?


I got Tom Petty playin' in my Silverado


and a iced-down six pack


hey daisy, don't you worry about your momma


like 007, we can keep it covert


undercover, on the ground by the water


gonna get a little piece, on earth


*chorus*


I say, baby, what you say we go pickin' wildflowers


got a spot way back in the woods


we'll sneak away for a couple of hours


you and me baby, pickin' wildflowers


hey baby, mother nature is waiting


and loves blooming like a cherry tree


lets buzz around, maybe do some pollinating


yeah, dive in like honey bees


*chorus*


baby, what you say we go pickin' wildflowers


got a spot way back in the woods


we'll sneak away for a couple of hours


you and me baby... pickin' wildflowers


take a trail ride, if you know what i mean


hey baby, won't you come with me


*chorus*


what you say we go pickin' wild flowers


got a spot way back in the woods


we'll sneak away for a couple of hours


spend a little time, pickin' wildflowers


what you say we go pickin' wildflowers


got a spot way back in the woods


sneak away for a couple of hours


you and me baby, you and me baby


hey ya, pickin' wildflowers


what you say we go, what you say we go


what you say we go, what you say we go


pickin' wildflowers ...pickin' wild flowers

Baby whatcha say we go pickin wild flowers?

POLL:Cut flowers or wild flowers....?

Which do you prefer...?





my neighbour gave me some nice ones as a thankyou but they don't seem as pretty as some I picked myself recently.

POLL:Cut flowers or wild flowers....?
I just like to see flowers growing ... and is anything more beautiful than a wild flower meadow? The variety and seeming fragility of the flowers to be found there is amazing. What is also wonderful about wild flowers is that they often grow in the most unlikely places - industrial estates, slag heaps, etc. Cut flowers, grown commercially, look almost brash in comparison, any scent having been sacrificed in the process of attaining new colour variations. I think I'd rather be given some seeds so that I can look forward to seeing something growing, rather than be given a bouquet of cut flowers and watch them dying.
Reply:Hey - someone actually agrees with me about something ... and I've got it in writing too. Yippee! Thanks!


*runs off to have it framed* Report It
