Cooking with Dandelion Flowers by Peter A. Gail, Ph.D
Dandelion flowers aren't just pretty. They are also extremely nutritious
food and have none of the bitterness of dandelion leaves if you cut
off the green bracts at the base of the flower cluster.
To Prepare Dandelion Flowers for Use in Recipes:
• Wash them thoroughly.
• Measure the required quantity of intact flowers into a measuring cup.
• Hold flowers by the tip with the fingers of one hand and pinch
the green flower base very hard with the other, releasing the yellow
florets from their attachment. Shake the yellow flowers into a bowl.
Flowers are now ready to be incorporated into recipes.
