    I don't have the opportunity to get fresh dandelions.......could you use dried dandelions?

    • @WildOnesHomestead
      @WildOnesHomestead  9 месяцев назад

      Hmmm. You know I'm not sure. I've collected dandelion heads and frozen them to make it at a later time, and that has worked fine, but I've never tried it from dried... a lot of the flavor comes from the pollen, so I'd guess it would depend on how it was dried and how much pollen was lost. The only way to find out, though, is to give it a shot! I'd think the worst thing that would happen is that you'd make yourself a simple syrup with the yellow dandelion color but little to no dandelion flavor.

    • @WildOnesHomestead
      @WildOnesHomestead  3 года назад

      It would almost have to be from having too many green bits in it, I don't know why else it would do that. I make several batches a year and have never had that happen. How did it taste?

    Can you use natural sweeteners.

    • @WildOnesHomestead
      @WildOnesHomestead  3 года назад

      I'm sure you can just remember anything that has a strong taste will likely overpower the taste of the dandelion (which is why I only use honey in some batches, as it ends up mostly tasting like honey) I'm also not sure what the shelf life would be with alternative sweeteners.

    • @meowmeowmilkers3252
      @meowmeowmilkers3252 3 года назад

      I have agave (natural syrup) to mix with it to make it sweet. And how long does this syrup stay preserved. I'm trying to learn stuff like this because we believe that the grocery stores are gonna be harder to come by one day in a few years.

      @@meowmeowmilkers3252 I have kept mine in the fridge for over a year easily when I make big batches, but I also test it for BRIX to be sure the sugar levels are high enough for that to work. I'm not very familiar with agave so I have no idea, likely anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.

      I dont think I would, I would guess it would ruin the flavor. Most of the recipes I have seen don't even suggest rinsing them first as you will lose a lot of the pollen.
