Get the latest Gertrude recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/gertrude A recipe I own that, while interesting, is difficult only because acacia flowers aren't really that easy to get. You can substitute roses if you want, or really any other (or at least most other) flowers. I've successfully made it with dandelions and lavender. Most importantly, the recipe I have is written by Gertrude Stein. If it's her recipe or one taken from a restaurant I don't know. http://www.grouprecipes.com/554/beignets-alice-b-toklas.html
