I’ve had 26 English lavender plants at one point.
For edibles I use lavender flowers when creaming butter for shortbread cookies, I e used the blooms in lemon muffins, or any muffins, really.
Lavender blossoms are great to add to rice pudding, or when making sweet rice with raisins and apricots and slivered toasted almonds.
Starting in May I keep a large jug of water in the fridge with lavender blooms, cucumber and lemon slices, and peppermint leaves. Kids love it!
I also use lavender for teas and infusions.
Black tea is great with lavender blossoms.
I also make red clover infusion with lavender and sometimes I add rose petals too.
