Section Two Flowers for Salads

Keeping fit and keeping my weight down has become a bit of an obsession with me. There is no nicer way to prepare healthy food than by making salads decorated with flowers both from the wild and from the garden.

This book principally sets out to deal with plants found in the wild, but in this section I am making an exception by including some edible garden flowers too. Remember, however, that although they are garden plants for us in northern Europe, in their native country they too were originally wild flowers.
