Bunga Telang

Blue Clitoris Flower is Bunga Telang in Malay. You judge whether it look like the peanut or not. :P

And to answer to Mark’s question,

I’m afraid to ask what it tastes like.

Honestly, I do not know. Never eat the flower before. :P

The flower is used to get the blue coloring for food. It will be sun dried and kept. When it is needed, it will be soak in water and squeezed to get the blue color out. Normally is it used in the Nyonya dumpling (Chang), Kuih Kochi, Pulut Tekan, and Taibak (a Nyonya dessert made from rice flour) plus whatever delicacy that require the blue coloring. It is natural and no preservative or chemical added.
