[Sca-cooks] pickled clover flowers

[Betsy Marshall]

This might also be due to the fact that most of the clover I have seen
in Texas (particularly in yards) is the dreaded "cockle-burr clover"-
the flowers are tiny, yellow, flat and four-petaled; looking quite a lot
like wood-sorrel, except for the seed pods- "burr" clover has round to
ovoid pods covered with hooks and spines, sorrel has cylindrical and
smooth covered pods.
Pyro- fan of mixed herbage lawns, (by necessity)

Okay, period evidence or recipe, please? And where did you find pickled 
clover flowers? Or even clover flowers, for that matter. Or are you 
going clover hunting? I don't think I've ever seen clover flowers, 
although probably I didn't notice that the flowers were from the clover 
and not just in among it.
