Redbud Flower Recipes - Vinegar, Pickle, Ferment

Redbud flowers are real food. I cook with them, and I preserve them, too. Here are two great ways to keep redbud flowers, so you can enjoy eating them across the seasons, not just in spring. The first way is to make redbud vinegar. The second way is to pickle or ferment them. I also give you tips on picking redbud flowers. And I show how I use my redbud vinegar and pickled redbud flowers, too.

Let me, and everyone else, know how you use Redbud flowers in the comments! Happy foraging!

Redbuds: Cercis canadensis, Cercis occidentalis, Cercis mexicana, and Cercis reniformis are in different parts of North America. Cercis siliquastrum is in Europe. There are also Cercis species in Asia. Redbuds are in the Pea Family, Fabaceae.
