Dandelions are edible. All of it! Best most nutritious part is the root. Also, try to make dandelion syrup - it's the best syrup I've had!
I really ought to learn more about foraging
It is also a very nice salad.
still haven’t gotten around to trying out dandelion capers
They make an amazing salad with the right dressing, something balancing out their bitterness.
(I use yoghurt, salt, pepper, MSG, honey, olive oil, vinegar, a bit of garlic, mixed together until emulsion. Amounts by taste. And if your cat is crazy for yoghurt, like mine, remember to reserve a tablespoon of the yoghurt for them before adding the other stuff.)
- balsamic vinegar
- honey
- mustard
- walnut oil
balsamic vinegar
That's cheating - it goes well even with ice cream!
Serious now, I never thought about mustard. I'll try it next time, it sounds amazing.
That’s cheating
Oh and MSG isn't?
(I probably add half tsp to everything I cook)
MSG definitely is cheating, but that's the point of cooking! You think I want to eat raw potatoes or something? Nah
Then they'll come out easy. We just went over this!
Just get a couple of rabbits; they’ll take care of the problem in no time!
Username checks out
Lies! Those fucking thistles come out of the ground easy, but those things are worthless!
I take that back, being worthless would be an improvement.
Tea time!
I'm waging a neverending war on goosefoot
Did you try to dug out carott from a clay soil?
Yes, I had Domino's that night.
