Distribute a few petals over each portion just before serving to preserve their appearance. Here, the flowers serve as a small garnish, complementing the other ingredients of the meal. Taste before adjusting seasoning and adapt quantities to the number of people at the table. Serve the preparation with bread, rice, or another simple side dish that allows the harvested vegetable to shine. Prepare small portions to enjoy the freshness of the harvest.
