I think there are different varieties of dandelions or maybe it is a family as you can see from the photo they dont look like the normal garden variety do they? The ones with the yellow flowers seem to be bitter. The smaller the leaves the nicer they are is the rule of thumb it seems. Good luck. BTW will be attempting that wine when I get back.Simchahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14048681207340581873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197830676216468754.post-40559752378333778372011-02-04T09:01:03.060-08:002011-02-04T09:01:03.060-08:00Lol - busted! ;) I've had mixed experiences wi...Lol - busted! ;) I've had mixed experiences with dandelions. I've had pretty good success with my dandelion wine, but the greens can be trickier to select in their prime. I've had some that were so bitter that I had to spit them out.<br /><br />Here in the states, especially in the south they sell "chicory coffee" which is very much like dandelion root coffee - somewhat of an aquired taste.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03667293599627184944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2197830676216468754.post-24067184742992566802011-02-04T03:24:07.868-08:002011-02-04T03:24:07.868-08:00Yes it was I dont remember getting any promised mo...Yes it was I dont remember getting any promised money though.

Mum also tried dandelion coffee, which is quite nice. And I remember being given 5c per one we weeded out of the lawn too- but it had to have the root as well. The salad sounds nice as well.The InTolerant Chef ™https://www.blogger.com/profile/11398350955819175899noreply@blogger.com
