I realized
that blue pea flower is only being used in Asian foods, such as nasi kerabu, nyonya
kuih & drink. I am trying to enlarge the uses of this beautiful blue pea
flower in my meal as I have them a lot in my garden.
Last
few weeks, I tried to use blue pea flower in Western food pulak. I extracted
the blue color from dried blue pea flowers and mixed it in crepe batter & the
crepe came out with nice romantic purple color.

Besides
its role as colorant, you can take the flower as ulam. Scientific studied had showed that blue
pea flower exhibited antimicrobial activity
& antidiabetic activity.
Read
the scientific articles if you do not believe them...hehe..
