@ysabet oh huh interesting! i wouldn’t have guessed that pollens were more intense than the rest of the plant, flavor-wise (tho usually plants go for strong flavors when they’re trying to keep insects away, which’d make pollination difficult. then again, i suppose you dont want the bees *eating* the pollen haha)
def curious to hear what you make!
@Satsuma I was also briefly tempted by the fennel pollen, but C talked me down when I was like "Doesn't this sound NEAT?" and they dutifully read the description and were like "...but you hate everything it's compared to."
(I am not a licorice/anise/fennel person at all, and the stuff is literally FENNEL POLLEN, so I don't know how my brain made that first jump to "we should get this!")
@ysabet haha sometimes a cool enough concept briefly overrides ones actual preferences
i am a fan of both fennel and dill, but neither of them are really flavors where i’m like “what if this but MORE” so I’m not sure I’d actually prefer the pollen versions in practice. But also am vv curious and want to try the new thing 😆
@Satsuma I would try *so many more* things just out of curiosity if it were easier to buy small samples of stuff.
@Satsuma I love that they do seasonal sugars!
The dill pollen just sounds NEAT, so I got some. Now to figure out what to actually do with it. Here's their info on it: https://silkroadspices.ca/products/dill-pollen
