You can often spot the beautiful flowers in kitchen gardens in the spring, they are amazing ornaments. But I never guessed that would be edible, and that even you would be able to buy them in the bud version at the farmers market. But it is!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5825\" srcset=\"http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-768x768.jpg 768w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-500x500.jpg 500w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-1400x1400.jpg 1400w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6598-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So here I am with my negibosu\u2026 I thoughts immediately that tempura would be an appropriate recipe. For some reasons, tempura always work well with any green, even with strong flavors: fukinoto is a good example. But what else\u2026 and would actually negibosu be strong in flavors? So I browsed a bit the net. Nothing came out neither in French nor in English but for the fully blossomed leek flowers. It was of no help, so I turned to Japanese and <strong>bingo!<\/strong> Negibosu have a significant number of entries in cookpad, more than half of them being\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tempura of course\u2026 hum\u2026 not helping much either\u2026 digging a bit more I finally found the other classic Japanese recipe to accommodate greens: miso ae. Miso ae, in my opinion, works better with creamy miso, the one I have, that I make, is more granular and won\u2019t work as good\u2026 one recipe in the end attracted my attention: a goma ae one. So I decided to go for this one, well, my way though. (and the tempura\u2026 just in case!!) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So here\u2019s my recipe of goma ae. Suri goma \u3059\u308a\u80e1\u9ebb is ground sesame powder. It\u2019s very easy to make from the sesame seeds, or to buy already powdered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5828\" srcset=\"http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-768x768.jpg 768w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-500x500.jpg 500w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-1400x1400.jpg 1400w, http:\/\/gentianeetantoine.com\/igk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/img_6604-1-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Making ground sesame: suri goma<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Negibosu goma ae<\/strong> (2 servings)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>A dozen of leek flower buds<\/li><li>1tbs of sesame seeds <\/li><li>1tbs of soya sauce<\/li><li>1tsp of brown sugar<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Wash the negibosu, remove the hard part if any, and blanche for a few minutes.
