Mince a large clove of garlic and put it in 1/8 ounce red or white wine vinegar in a small pan add a pinch of salt and 8-10 strands of saffron; heat the mixture to just a boil and remove from heat; let it steep until room temperature add enough honey to create a sweet and sour flavor you like add and whisk mayonnaise until reaches thick pouring stage refrigerate for an hour or two snagged in outlet 3 and Johnsfolly 1 1

Johnsfolly Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Ok so a partial forage and homemade meal tonight. My Betterhalf made homemade pasta. The forage part was her collecting dandelion leaves yesterday that she soaked. Then cooked the dandelion leaves with garlic and pine nuts then served on the pasta and topped with parmesan. Was tasty. Just slightly bitter at times. BilletHead 1

Another thing to try Ness, Dandelion blossoms. Batter them up and fry them. I call it poor mans morels. Tasty Got some poke coming up. Never tried it but think I will this season.

Have had a couple of dandelion salads in the past. Again it can be an acquired taste.

I may not like it but I may be surprised.

MOPanfisher Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Poke greens can be very good, young leaves are better, if bigger split out the center part and boil, then dump water and boil again in salted water. Toss them.in a killer with bacon and a little vinegar for a few minutes. I know people who eat the stalks too but I will pass on those. tho1mas and BilletHead 1 1
rps Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 There is a reason your grandmother cooked poke and collards in bacon. Dandelion, like some other bitter greens, can be a great addition to salads. Who has had dandelion wine? snagged in outlet 3 1
