Gone to Seed: Edible Flowers

My arugula went to seed quickly, but rather than worry about it, I kind of like the how the blooms look in the salad boxes.

The white arugula flowers are sweet, while the yellow rocket arugula blooms have a slightly bitter taste.

I mixed them with greens for a salad, including the arugula leaves, as well as nasturtium flowers that have a peppery flavor.
