| Feb 6, 2011 at 1:55 | comment | added | PLL | Ah — after some more thorough googling than I’d done at first, I think I’ve found it online after all: it is an edible lichen, sometimes called “stone flower”, and can apparently be a reasonably standard component of garam masala. Will put what I’ve found into a separate answer. Thankyou for your help, though, in any case! | |
