Heather flowers Heather, Calluna vulgaris in full flower..
Welcome to the summary page for FabulousFusionFood's Edible Flowers guide to Heather along with all the Heather containing recipes presented on this site, with 5 recipes in total.

This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the Cornish recipes added to this site.

These recipes, all contain Heather as a major edible flower.

Almost all Britain's heathland is covered in heather which is generally heathland heather (Calluna vulgaris). This is a rather scrubby shrub, the young tips of which can be used to flavour ale or mead (see this recipe for heather ale and this recipe for heather mead).

a beautiful, complex flavour. Earthy and floral, with undertones of woody spice. This also means that dried heather flowers can be ground and used as a spice.



The alphabetical list of all recipes on this site follows, (limited to 100 recipes per page). There are 5 recipes in total:
