Foraging a Hearty Winter Meal.

This is a first of its kind for me. Hope you like it :) Trying to be creative when you're late to the maple blossom party. 🍁 Creating a wild stir fry ➡️ by including some oxeye daisy, dead nettle, mallow and siberian miners lettuce. The oxeye daisy is bolting right now and the tender part of the stalk is such a tasty veggie which worked wonderfully for tempura. As for the miners lettuce flower stalk they were flash fried as an attempt to mimic bean sprouts. I wasn't completely sold on it but I think it's still worth further exploration. The mallow added a nice overall creaminess to the veggies. Not quite enough for a gumbo effect but pleasant still. I've been fairly reluctant to share any picture candidates for my new book currently in the works, more specifically a complete visual reference. This is mainly out of fear for copyright infringement, especially if these pics make it in the final draft... but at the same time how else can I share my enthusiasm for it without any teasers?? It's a conundrum.
