Japanese Edible Flower

This is called ”食用菊(しょくようぎく)”in Japanese. (Chrysanthemum in English.)
In Autumn, I always buy them. Pull petals and cook them in a boiling water with some vinegar for seconds.
I prefer them to use for Ohitashi Salad. Boiled spinach, tiny dried sardin, lemon juice, soy sauce and crumble seaweed.
Kawaii and Oishi indeed :)
