Did you know every part of a nasturtium (na-stir-tchum) is edible?
Their name comes from the Latin for nose twister—a nod to their peppery punch!
The vibrant flowers offer a subtle sweetness, while the leaves, petals, and even the seeds bring a bold, spicy kick to salads, garnishes, and garden-inspired dishes. I'm going to have a dabble at turning the buds into 'poor man's capers' by pickling them- they're coming to France next week so I hope they'll have earnt their flight ticket and taste delicious.

Sunshine on a plate! Loved this Greek-inspired marinated chicken and tzatziki dinner – a new summer favourite! Juicy chicken thighs soaked in a simple but flavour-packed mix of oregano, mint, thyme, garlic and a little paprika… humble ingredients, totally elevated.
Add a dollop of cooling tzatziki and you’ve got a dish that tastes like a Mediterranean holiday.
