To prepare them, separate the petals from the green base, and please only consume the petals. They can be used fresh in a salads and beverages, as a garnish on tacos or soups, baked into cakes, cookies, or breads, and dried to make tea! You can even dry them to be crushed as a spice, similar to saffron!
