Abstract

Jestivo cvijeće dio je tradicionalne medicine već stoljećima, ali se koristi i u kuhinji kao sastojak u različitim jelima poput juha i salata te kao dekoracija. U posljednje vrijeme, jestivo cvijeće postaje kulinarski trend. Sve veći interes za jestivo cvijeće u kulinarstvu potiču kuharice, kulinarski članci te televizijske emisije s naglaskom na njihove hranjive i funkcionalne sastojke. Cilj ovog rada je dati pregled dosadašnjih spoznaja o najproučavanijim vrstama jestivog cvijeća vezana uz njihovu nutritivnu vrijednost, antioksidacijsku aktivnost, funkcionalnost te postupke prerade, pakiranja i skladištenja, a obuhvaća cvjetove ukrasnog bilja, povrća te začinskog bilja.
