I do the pan version and use more dough but it's kinda this 😋

Oh that's pretty unique!
I'm going to have to try that. Thank you 🫂
Just so you know for next spring, they grow really easily from woody cuttings.
Just cut a length from a plant & then when you get it home, it into lengths about 20cm, remove the leaves & stick them in soil. Super easy.
Thank you, I will try!
I just made some!
I deep fried them in beef tallow.
The perfect cure for an indulgent Christmas day!
I can't say that the elderflowers imparted much flavor but the flowers made for a crispy delicate batter structure. Most of the flavor came from the batter & icing sugar I feel.
I was surprised at the tenderness of the stems once cooked.
Very enjoyable.
I found a little green frog hiding in one of the flower bunches but it hopped off before I could snap a pic. I'm starting to really like this plant. It's brings so much life into my garden.
How cool is this, you made my day 😄 glad you liked them!
The flavor is not super strong - it's best to harvest them after a couple of days of sunshine, because rain can wash away pollen which carries the flavor.
Or just make some jelly and spread it on there to double the elderflowerness 😄
Apple juice makes a good foundation for that btw 😊
For the stems, as I said I always cut them off, since I am using a pan. I will try to document my process if I still remember in half a year 😄
