The buds of the flower Bauhinia variegata are both cooked amd used for pickles, spectacular stuff.

    Is there anywhere you can find these to purchase or just to try? I’ve never had one, but apparently they’re rather delicate so they don’t make it to market very well. It seems like the most common option is knowing someone with a pawpaw tree.

      They make it to farmers markets occasionally, and the trees are very easy to identify and surprisingly common. If you know what to look for, most wooded areas in their range will have some pawpaw trees. They generally only fruit for a few weeks in late September/early October but the good news is you’re right on time!
