Beautiful blue flowers, loved by many insects! The flowers of wild chicory, which colour entire roadsides blue, can be harvested in summer for a delicious side dish: Briefly cook the flowers and serve them with olive oil, wine vinegar, and salt. The somewhat bitter taste combines well with the dressing (recipe www.florae.nl)
