This is where I bought mine. If you order from them just be sure they understand that you want culinary lavender.

Bingo. Thank you kitchenelf. That's what I'm looking for.

ETA: The recipe I want to make (see link in first post), calls for lavender flowers. My understanding(?) is, not to use lavender from the garden as it contains pesticide. So... the recipe is a bit confusing, for me. Thanks for all the input. Love the ice cream idea as well. Wonder why the market does not carry it. Hmmm.

You can get just about anything in a spice here.

The Spice House - Merchants of Exquisite Spices, Herbs and Seasonings

That link is for lavender.

Ooooo. More Lavender goodies. Thank you.

Found a recipe for Lavender Lemonade & Lavender cookies dipped in chocolate that sound Lavendericious.

kitchenelf, you've GOT to post that lavender martini recipe!! i'm especially fond of adding a pinch of lavender into earl grey tea, or plain green tea. yum!

Dave is right, penzey's totally sells lavender.

i got a huge stash of it for fairly cheap at my local world market, back in their food section. if there's one near you, they have a neat selection of spices, herbs, imported candies, tea...

The current issue of Today's Diet & Nutrition magazine has a very interesting article on cooking with lavender. You should be able to find it at your local news stand, Borders Books or Barnes & Noble, or maybe the local public library.

Thanks Dave, fireweaver & Caine. Didn't see it on Penzey's site on first try.

Been doing some web-reading on lavender. Seems it will mellow? you out, but may interefere w or enhance certain meds... so I'm holding off for a while.

Interested in K'elf's martooni though.

ETA: That looks like a kewl magazine, Caine. Thank you.
