I've tried the elderflower tart made from elderflowers from a commercial
source and it was pretty fragrant. I was wondering if anyone knew anything
about the fresh stuff and if I should be drying them. Since the flowers coming
off my plant don't have a strong scent or any real flavor.

The flowers are good in sambocade, which is a 14th-century English
cheesecake variant flavored with elder flowers. The recipe doesn't
specify that they be dried, but it seem like it works much better with
dried flowers. Basically it's fresh white curd cheese, egg (whites
only), the flowers and a little sugar in a crust.
