CA Distributor Recalls Dried Lilly Flowers for Undeclared Sulfites

U.S. Trading Company of Hayward, CA is recalling Joy Luck Brand Lily Flowers because it may contain undeclared SULFITES.  The recall was initiated after Florida Dept of Agriculture and Consumer Services collected a sample of the lily flowers. It was discovered that lily flowers containing sulfites were distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of sulfites.

Eating Lilly Flowers...according to AI:

Eating dried lily flowers, particularly the unopened buds of the daylily plant (also called "golden needles"), is a common practice in Chinese cuisine, where they are added to soups, stir-fries, and rice dishes for their subtle floral aroma and mild, slightly sweet flavor; essentially, they are considered an edible flower with a musky and flowery taste when rehydrated and cooked properly. 

Key points about eating dried lily flowers:

Origin: Primarily used in Chinese cooking, where they are often referred to as "golden needles" or "yellow flower vegetable". 

What you eat: The dried unopened buds of the daylily plant. 

Preparation: Before using, dried lily flowers need to be soaked in water to rehydrate them. 

Flavor profile: A delicate, slightly sweet floral taste with a musky undertone. 

How to use dried lily flowers in cooking:

Soups: Add to broths for a subtle floral flavor. 

Stir-fries: Incorporate into stir-fried vegetable or protein dishes. 

Rice dishes: Mix into fried rice or rice porridge for added texture and flavor. 

Important points to remember:

Not all lilies are edible:

Ensure you are using the correct type of lily, specifically the daylily, as other lily varieties can be toxic. 

Quality matters:

Buy dried lily flowers from a reputable source to guarantee quality and proper identification. 

Check for insects:

Always rinse dried lily flowers thoroughly before using to remove any potential insects.
