I did them in a tempura last week... wasn't bad... I still prefer to blanch, shock, and grill or stir fry with a bit of shallot or garlic, and give them a splash of balsamic or lemon.

Some species are carcinogenic. A solid blanch is always recommended (in case there's an outside species in your edibles) to kill any bacteria (e-coli/salmonella) and break down any potential toxins.

I heard cooking them destroys the good antioxidants and phytochemicals
