dandelion blooms.

get you as many as you plan on eating, RINSE them in salt water, dont soak, they fall apart. Get all the green and stem off you can with breaking the bloom apart.
Dip in egg first, then into flour or cracker crumbs, or a combination there of, fry till golden brown, season to taste and enjoy. They taste really good, almost like a morel mushroom.

[swamprat84]

Ive heard that they are good but never tried them. Are there any precautions that need to be taken? Ive always heard that they can make you real sick if they arent prepared right.

[kitchenhot]

Hillbilly ever try locust blossoms?

[Admin]

I wont eat anything with locust on them

[hillbilly]

far as i know, unless somebodys spraying round-up3 on them, there is no real worries. I have ate them a bunch of times, never been sick. I just try to remove all of the green "under petals" from under the yeller part, and get all the stem off, its as bitter as quienine. Just fry'em till golden brown.
Never ate locust blossoms.
Dandelion wine is rough stuff, if you can handle a real "manly" wine, you'll like it, but it aint no sweet sipping stuff let me tell you. You can also eat dandelion greens as well, much like polk or mustard greens.

Hillbilly <---from down home, we eat a whole bunch of good stuff yall either mow down, or throw away.
