SC - lavender

[Thomas Gloning]

<< ... that Lavender (lavandula spica) was noted in 1150 by Hildegard >>

"Lavendula ... homini   ad  comedendum  non  valet". (L. vera; ch. 35)
 lavender      for man  to  eat         not  is-healthy

The passage De spica/Lavendula spica (ch. 25) seems rather of medicinal
than of culinary value (lavender wine for medical purposes):

"CAP. XXV. — DE SPICA.
Spica calida et sicca, et calor ejus sanus est. Et qui spicam cum vino
coquit, vel, si vinum non habet, cum melle et aqua coquat, et ita
tepidum saepe bibat, et dolorem jecoris et pulmonis, et dumphedinem in
pectore ejus mitigat, et scientiam puram ac purum ingenium facit."

Are there other passages?

Best,
Thomas
