When I was growing up, there was a fence at the end of the backyard that had roses, honeysuckle, and morning glories growing on it altogether, in a marvelous mess. We kids used to go down and pinch the ends off of the honeysuckle flowers, and lick the sweet syrup. But I had never heard of using Honeysuckle in cooking.

Today the email that I receive from Victoria Magazine had the most beautiful spread of recipes that use honeysuckle; it includes Honeysuckle and Meyer Lemon Panna Cotta, Melon Prosciutto Salad; and Couscous Salad with Honeysuckle Vinaigrette. Really beautiful:
