Great video. I would've never known all this about sunflowers. Your friend sure has a nice sunflower field. 😅

This is so COOL, Thank you Chicory Girl for sharing, and I may have what appears to be a foolish question, but does this apply to wild sunflowers or is it only the domesticated ones?😊👍❤🌻

@chicorygirlwellness 11 ай бұрын

Thank you for watching! That is not a foolish question at all! According to what I have read, wild sunflowers are considered just as edible as domestic ones. I have not personally tried wild ones, but I would assume it would work the same way. The one difference I can think of is that you may get less per stalk since wild sunflowers tend to be smaller than domestic ones. I hope that helps!

@@chicorygirlwellness Thank You for answering My question regarding sunflowers, because in my 940 sq. Meter lot, they came up as weeds, we'd leave them for their flowers but now, thanks to You, we know the leaves and stalks are edible.🤗

You might need something like xantangum as a binding agent. How did the flour fair for you with backed goods that had a rising element to it? Did they get fluffy enough?

@chicorygirlwellness 9 ай бұрын

Hello! I do not have a lot of experience using it with recipes that needed a lot of rising. I have used it mostly for things like soft, biscuit-like scones or cookies. The biscuits were tender and fluffy without extra additions, but if I tried it with something that needed more rising, I probably would make some additions, treating it like other gluten-free flours. Sorry, I can't be more help with your question!

The leftover stalk can be used for kindling.

That is a great idea for using up the leftovers! My kids built mini villages outside and used the leftover stalks to create plumbing for the town so that is how we used up our stalks! :) Thank you for the suggestion!
