Pansy

Pansies are also highly aesthetically pleasing when eaten. Small blooms, typically 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) in diameter, are characteristic of pansies. They come in a variety of colors, but the most prevalent ones are purple, blue, and yellow. They feature five petals that overlap one another, and in the middle is a black spot that resembles an ink stain. Pansies typically taste mild, fresh, and barely flowery, however, there can be some flavor variance depending on the variety. Pansies are a wonderful ornamental accent to delicacies like pastries, cakes, and cookies since they come in such a wide range of color variants. Before including the petals in your meal, candy them for an added touch of flare.

Pansies may be coarsely diced and added to a straightforward green salad for a splash of color and texture for easier preparation. In addition to being an interesting addition to food, pansies are a rich source of numerous strong plant chemicals that are known to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities.
