I like the flowers because they have an interesting and fresh flavour. I usually pinch off close to the main stem so I have a long 'handle' when its time to dip them or eat them, though I cut them off for the above plate. I also usually remove the flower's sex organs before I stuff and cook, just assume these wouldnt be as edible as the rest of the flower, which almost seems reminiscent of some sort of lettuce.
