I just tried this tonight as the dandelions have just come into bloom this week.Pulled a few of the green "fringe"off seemed tedious so barely cleaned the rest. Had a dozen blooms to try out. Heated up the big cast iron pan with a little olive oil and dipped them in a thin cornstarch-flour batter.sprinkled a little Adobe seasoning when done. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...this was THE best ! a big hit with the family( especially a discerning 14yr old who about devoured them all!). I'm sure for now on we'll be picking every dandelion we see! Great channel Chris, can't wait to see more! Thanks would have never thought of this idea or seen it anywhere else,

You're welcome -- and thank you for that taste review of the dandelion flowers! Your adjustments to the general idea sound really good -- olive oil, with a real Tempura batter, and seasoning. Thanks for those details. Your review and ideas will help other people appreciate these great plants. I'm glad your 14yr old enjoyed them, too. Happy foraging!

Hi ! I'm a retired nurse in Charlotte NC. I found your site a few days ago and I love it 🌸 I've watched many of your videos in the last couple of days... Today I picked 102 dandelion blossoms out of my front and backyard and my next door neighbors yard. They were everywhere ! I got so excited. I made sure to only pick every other one so as to leave the bees their share. I discovered that if I'm not going to cook them immediately, I had to turn them on their heads on a damp paper towel to keep them from closing up. I went to pick some yesterday, and found 2 ! Where did they go ??? I found that they close up in the early evening...not sure why, must just be a dandelion thing 😊 My yard is a half acre in a neighborhood built in the early 70s. Even tho there are major roads very nearby, we have an amazing amount of wild creatures ! Lots of deer, raccoons, possum, owls, several coyote..gotta keep little pets in at night. Huge snakes, turtles, 2 kinds of woodpeckers, mocking birds, and huge turkey vultures that glide in to clean up dead raccoons and such. Foraging in my yard and nearby woods is something have always wanted to do. Found a black walnut tree recently that I'll return to later in the year. Sorry for the long comment 😄 Thanks again for your channel ! PS.... Found jellyroll mushrooms on many many dead limbs on my property last month. Collected about a gallon of the wiggly things. When they dried on trays in my house, I ended up with almost a pint jar of little dry crumbles. The good thing is, when I'm ready to add to soups, I let them sit in water for about an hour. They plump right up to their original size 😊🌷

Thanks for sharing some about yourself and your foraging, Kaa Pii. I think it helps people appreciate that wild food is real food for regular people. You are in a great location for some good foraging, pretty much all year long! Nice haul on your dandelions and your mushrooms! Dandelions do close up every night. If you want to pick a lot of them just for the flower petals, it's a little trick to get them in the morning before they open up. It's less effort to get all the petals that way. You've got a nice tip for preserving your jellyroll mushrooms, too. It's amazing how many great wild edible mushrooms there are. Happy foraging! And I hope you enjoy my future videos, too! Thanks for commenting!

I have deep fried my dandelion flowers in egg & flour batter, breadcrumbs, & sometimes sprinkled them with parmesan cheese. I made Italian greens with cooked dandelion leaves mixed with cherry tomatoes, garlic, bacon and olive oil. I also made fresh green dandelion leaf salad. I have even made coffee from dandelion roots (it's actually quite good). And, of course..no meal is complete without a glass of homemade dandelion wine. The WHOLE dandelion flower is very special & useful to me. My neighbor's yards are all dandelion-free..apparently they hate dandelions. But my yard? Dandelions as far as the eye can see....except when removed for consumption! Such foolish neighbors I have. They don't know what they're missing..and I don't care to tell them. Lol.

Tried them first time last week. Surprised to see some growing in our backyard (FL) and snipped them off near the base. I had no idea how to use them but have a cold and wanted to make a tea. I snipped the stem and flower up into one inch pieces, put them in a cup of water, microwaved it 1 minute (didn't boil) and set it aside till cool. I stained it through a tea strainer and drank what I thought was absolutely wonderful - no sugar needed. I looked some more and found a few head growing and repeated - still very good. It was a wonderful way to sit and look at videos while feeling so ill. That's how I found you and have now subscribed. I began seeing a video about Usnea and since we are surrounded by oaks, have so much it is embarrassing. I made a tincture with 100 proof vodka and I could tell it made a difference. It took over a month to make but now I have this cold and it DOES work to open me up, relieve the drainage, and stop the coughing. WOW. I can't wait to see more of your videos now that I'm hooked on what is just outside my backdoor.

Holly, so... driving around a while back after watching this video, I happened to come across a baseball field which some guys on a huge machine were JUST about to mow for the Spring... and hurriedly picked approximately a half of a gallon freezer bag full. (Those "dandy" stalks were knee to thigh high!) Thank goodness, too, that I was just in the nick of time... because MANOMANOMAN were they tasty!! I'm gluten-free (due to a genetic mutation which won't allow my body to process folic acid, that man-made crud-- NOT folate), so my batter was a nice eggy batter with 75% brown rice and 25% coconut for the flour portion. I sprinkled some salt on them when they were done turning a crispy medium brown and *BAMMO!* they mysteriously disappeared. lol They were sooo goooooOOD! I want to liken them to something between a fried mushroom and fried okra. Thank you, dear friend, for the inspiration. ♡ I will absolutely, certainly, without a doubt, be making these again in the future! Please, keep up the great work! ♡

Never thought of using wild weeds in my omelettes and am definitely going to fry some dandelion flowers up, thanks once again!

That omelette had 6 weeds in it (bittercress, purple deadnettle, chickweed, english daisy, dandelion, and chives), plus spruce tree needles from the spruce tree balsamic vinegar. It was a really good omelette! If you fry up some of those dandelion flowers, it would be great to get your taste review in the comments sometime! Enjoy your weeds!

Thanks for your omelette ingredients, will have to see if we have bittercress and english daisy. The fried dandelions are first of the list and I certainly will get back to you with my comment. Am sure I will enjoy them as there's not a weed I have turned down so far:)

I use a lot of danfilions from my yard as well my best use is drying them for teas thank you for your vid showed me a much easier way to harvesting and separate the real weeds from bunches a lot of times I’m in a huge hurry and just get to pull up plant roots and all yes I dry all of it to use

Thanks! I do eat more dandelion flowers in salads and other, more healthy ways, haha. Keeping my fried blossom season to peak flowering season helps me limit myself at least. Gotta have some boundaries! ; )

Those look yummy! I'll fry anything that can't get away -- I plan to live till I die and enjoy every gastronomical minute of it. Have you tried fried squash blossoms? They're great for breakfast! TFS.

That's the gastronomical spirit! I'll have to break out the deep fryer this summer when my squash start flowering. I'll finish my video on deep-fried Black Locust flowers, too, pretty soon. I'll end up with a deep-fried playlist and then we are all in trouble! ;D

Try a sprig of mint inside the squash or daylily flower and then, batter & fry as usual. Quite a treat!

I added the yellow flowers (no green parts) to oatmeal with other ingredients.. I make ramen soups with all the parts and many ingredients. I make some amazing tostadas with all parts Too. I just wish they bloomed longer! Haven’t tried them fried, but would love to.

Fantastic! I would sooooo love to try your recipes. Unfortunately d/t my declining health I can no longer get out to forage or to cook. But am passing this video along in hopes that some of my FB friends that are able will find the curiosity to get out there and take advantage of this powerhouse wild edible. Thank you so much for the video!
