(2) Flowers and food
Flowers are colorful, elegant and unique, fragrant and full of vitality. They not only give people beautiful enjoyment, but also are rich in protein, fat, starch, various amino acids and vitamins, as well as various nutrients necessary for human body, such as macro elements and trace elements, which have certain medicinal value and health care functions. Chewing flowers existed in ancient Rome as early as two thousand years ago, and now it has set off a new upsurge in the United States. Even Michael Jackson, a sickly international rock star, once ate seven freshly picked flowers in a hotel in Florida. Flower cooking has also become popular. The chef removed the roses from the soup surface, made a salad with dandelion buds and made pancakes with flowers. The most popular cake for diners should be the cake sprinkled with rose perfume and lettuce vegetable oil. The flower-eating craze is not the creation of anyone, but the retro enthusiasm inadvertently aroused by California restaurant owners and flower farmers. There is a paradise farm in gabriela, California, and its owner Nun is the first person in California to sell organically grown edible flowers. Business is very good, and demand is often in short supply. He planted nearly 40 edible flowers. The first species is Trollius chinensis. Later, I found that sesame cauliflower was beautiful and delicious, so I began to plant it in large quantities. Then violets, pansies, chrysanthemums, dandelions and so on were introduced. Nuin said: "Among them, pansy and violet are most favored by customers and chefs because of their bright colors and good color and fragrance." Now, Paradise Farm has customers all over the United States. Today, restaurants that make a lot of money from flower meals are not only in California. The ace dish of a luxury restaurant in Dahners is "Pickled Roses", and a famous restaurant in Philadelphia has become even more famous since it introduced "Lotus Juice Ice Water".
