    Amazing how the greenish pulp in the saucepan turned into the golden deliciousness at the end. I love dandelion in salad but had less success with dandelion wine - it was like drinking rocket fuel! A couple of years after I poured it down the sink, I was at a posh dinner where the wine tasted exactly the same as my rejected dandelion vintage 🤣🤣🤣

    Hi hello lovely lady , when it's come to dandelion, every part of the plants are edible (flowers,leaves, roots) the roots are grilled and used like coffee and of course the leaves are used as salad or it can be cooked like spinach! Many thanks for sharing with us , I must try that honey recipe big bisous from 🇫🇷

    I used to see dandelions as weeds but not anymore. Their flowers are pretty and I’m looking into the medicinal properties. Thanks for sharing!

    • @freedomforestlife
      @freedomforestlife  Год назад +1

      This is AWESOME to hear Nneka, They have so many uses and the whole of the plant is edible ... you often find the roots or leaves in tea or Dandelion coffee (i've not made the coffee yet though), I remember my herbalist talking about lots of their medicinal values back in 2020, but I need to refresh my brain for exactly what ... good liver cleanser/detoxer though it is said ... I remember that much 😃 Thanks for being with us as always - enjoy 💛✌️🌿

      Hey Amie, great question, I just have mine on the lowest setting - I'm on gas, so its like gas mark 1 or maybe even slightly lower on a simmer setting. If things will be jared for a while, I'll boil the lids too ... if its something that will be eaten fast (like this) I often skip the lids ! 😆💚✌️🌿
