    Dandelion wine is excellent if you get them @ the right time. Greens are ok. I'll have to try the buds! Thanks for the recipe.

    Hi, Bill
    I've made fried squash blossoms, they're wonderful, sweet and nutty.
    What sort of flavor are these?
    Thanks,
    Pat

    I would love to try these.. but.. no dandelions here in this part of Texas.. Now in Michigan people made wine out of them.. That had a kick!
