Culinary Tips
- Dandelion greens may be used as a salad green, provided you use a citrus-rich or sweet vinaigrette to counter the taste of the greens. You can also saute or braise the greens, which should reduce some of the bitterness. Many people enjoy blending these greens into their morning vegetable smoothies, as the other ingredients can cover the bitter taste. You can throw these leaves into any thick & hearty soups, stews, & curries, or chop up the greens to make a tangy pesto for your pasta!
