Under each leaf you will find a group of long pale yellow flowers.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Keep repeating the first 2 steps: open the leaf, collect flowers, and discard leaf. While peeling, the leaves will get softer and paler in color and the flowers will get smaller &#8211; as the blossom peels.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Put in a bowl, add cold water, lemon juice or vinegar to avoid discoloring.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Pick a flower, open, by pulling the feathery plastic like petal back, you&#8217;ll find the matchstick like stem inside the flower. You have to remove it, otherwise your blossoms will be hard and bitter.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Open the flower by gently rubbing the end of it in between your fingers and gently push the petals back. Do this for all that you can. The flowers closer to the heart will get smaller and smaller and will get harder and harder to clean. When you can&#8217;t clean anymore, just separate the flowers.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Discard the match-stick like part, keep the flower.
