Chrysanthemum Salad 3 large chrysanthemums, 2 yellow 1 mauve (unsprayed) 1/2 cup white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon honey 1 teaspoon fresh chopped tarragon, (or 1/2 tsp dried tarragon) juice of 1 lemon 1/2 pound lettuce, broken into bite sized pieces 1 bunch watercress, coarsely chopped 4 large pimento stuffed olives, sliced 1/2 cup olive oil salt and pepper to taste Pull petals from flowers. Combine vinegar, honey, tarragon, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Marinate petals for 30 minutes. Drain and reserve marinade. Mix petals with lettuce, watercress and olives in a large bowl. Mix olive oil with 3 tablespoons of reserved marinade, add salt and pepper to taste. Mix with salad just before serving.
