Begonias are a total sleeper hit in the edible flower world. Unlike many flowers that are mostly for show, begonia petals actually taste amazing: crisp, juicy, citrusy-sour (oxalic acid gives them a tang similar to sorrel or rhubarb). They’ve got both visual appeal and bold flavor, which makes them a chef’s dream.
