Fried Dandelion Blossoms Recipe
A great way to temporarily rid your lawn of dandelions and make them worthwhile picking. Make sure your lawn has not been treated with any chemicals first!

Interesting!!!!


Well, that's one way to get rid of those pesky weeds! :) Thank you.


I've always wanted to try making dandelion wine. I think it's more likely I'll make these!


Okay very interesting are they bitter?


And do you drink the wine with it?


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!

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


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.
