Tiny House Cooking - Free Food Foraging! - Dandelion Cookies

A really fun and tasty way to use more of these little golden flowers. Dandelion cookies! This was my first try making these, but they turned out great.
Dandelion Cookies: (I made a double batch)
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup honey
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
1 t. baking soda
pinch of salt
1 cup flour
1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup dandelion flowers
Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.
And in case you missed it, I will be speaking at the Homesteading Life Conference in Missouri in August. I'd love to see some of you there in person! Check out more info at www.homesteadi...
***************************************************************
If you are new to my channel and Fy Nyth in general, welcome and congratulations on joining the Fy Nyth Flock! I'm Ariel. I live off grid (as in no physical connection to public utilities) in a tiny house on wheels in the mountains of western Wyoming. I've been living this lifestyle for more than three years now and love it! What will you find if you follow my channel and watch my videos?
Real life here. I try to show the good and the bad. The ups and the downs. What works, and what doesn't. The parts I love (most of it!), and the things that suck. Not just the showroom version of a tiny house, but everyday life in a tiny house. Not just the romantic idea of "homesteading" or off grid life, but the everyday details of this lifestyle. I split my own wood for heat, carry my water by hand, and attempt to grow as much of my own food as I can between the weather and wildlife here. I hope to help others learn from my mistakes and make life just a little easier for anyone else interested in pursuing a similar lifestyle.
I live in a somewhat harsh and cold climate, but enjoy the stunning sceanery and wildlife that I am surrounded by on a daily basis. You'll also see videos of of the nature and wildlife around my home. If you are interested in my photography or purchasing a photo, I'd love if you follow that over at Facebook.com/ArielCelestePhotography or ArielCelestePhotography.zenfolio.com!
For a bit of my background, as a child, I was fortunate enough to be able to spend much of my free time exploring and playing in the woods. Little has changed now that I'm older I suppose. I moved to a place with a bigger woods and still enjoy spending my time outside gardening, hiking, exploring, and photographing the natural world around me. As the eldest of seven children who grew up in a homeschooling family, I had the opportunity, not always appreciated at the time, to learn to do quite a bit of work. I've enjoyed a wide range of jobs, everything from greenhouses and flower arranging to wilderness therapy with teens, to milking cows. Mostly, I enjoy doing the kinds of things that I think provide a real service or value to others. Some of my other hobbies include backpacking, hosting people, cooking, preserving food, anything to do with nutrition, reading, journalling, and sitting around a fire and talking to my close friends.

Dandy Cookies are on my list. We did batter and fry last year....very good.

[@citybarbs5563]

I've made several interesting recipes with dandelions, but my fave is batter-fried dandelion blossoms. They taste like mushrooms but with a nicer texture (no slime factor). My second fave is dandelion mead.

[@angeliquecoppolino9582]

Excited to try this tonight, thank you for sharing 😊

[@trishkuhne550]

Leave it to the oldest to forge ahead. You r a role model!

[@spsllc3143]

You are so smart!

[@andoriagems]

WOW!!! You look absolutely gorgeous @4:12... Interesting info on the Dandelions!!!

[@reginawojtan8633]

So glad You presented those cookies .I tried salad using Dandelion . For sure , I will make them ,just waiting for spring. Warm regards.

[@sheilabundren2037]

Thanks for sharing. Like your hair up!!

[@gracel3320]

Can’t wait to try these, they look delicious! Thank you for sharing!😊

[@amydickinson3284]

The flower heads are delicious rolled in seasoned flour & deep fried.

[@marlenejones6266]

I agree about when we lose our wonder at the wonderful dandelion. Such a versatile little plant. I hesitate to use any in town here due to our company use of pesticides. But I surely would love to make ANYTHING from them. So so nutritious. Thank you sweet fun Ariel. You make my day much more interesting. I think I watched 4 hours today. I'm 73 now. Many things no longer interest me. But your hippie type lifestyle, lol, makes me smile. Please don't be offended by my remark. I mean nothing bad. You are a gloriously interesting woman.

[@PKeefe]

Hi, I just want to thank you for your interesting and educational videos. The relaxed manner in which you cook etc. reminds me of my childhood and mostly my Grandmothers way of doing things. I don’t think I ever saw her with measuring cups or spoons, she would send me out to.the apple tree to fetch the apples or up behind the church cemetery with a milk bottle to pick blueberries and soon after I came back the oven was heated and a the aroma of a fresh fruit pie was in the air. Pies were her specialty. Lard was used for the crust always but I don’t know the amounts of the ingredients. Pinches of this and that ans a coffee

[@PKeefe]

Cup was used to pick up the flower mostly or she could pour it in the bowl from the sack. I used to get to roll out the crust and peel apples. That was way back in the 50s’. So happy to see the olden days have returned. Best wishes always, PAM PS if my dandelions weren’t contaminated I would try your recipe. I have been tasting them anyway.

[@cedarrockcabin3633]

I love the idea of dandelion infused oil!

[@aftabgardeningideas786]

Wow 😮 It looks absolutely delicious and testy 😋 so yummy 😋🤤 Excellent recipe! Thank you for your excellent sharing

[@JEMCochran49]

I had always heard that these weeds were useful....cool....flower power!

[@claudebelanger8524]

When I am out in the woods for a week I pick up dandelions and roast the root. I then crush the roots to a powder, put them in a pot and slowly bring them to boil. Then filter while pouring in a cup. Great replacement for. All natural, no additives

[@mags102755]

I love watching you cook, it makes me happy. Thanks!

[@Croaghaun71]

Wow. Those look awesome! What a neat way to use dandelions. I'll look forward to making some this spring/summer. Thanks for the idea! :)

[@kathyg.8960]

Walnuts with raisins would be delish too.

[@robertbird3086]

Thanks for the recipe, will try , but may add some walnuts or pecans and raisins.. Yum...I usually make tea from the dried flowers and eat the leaves in dishes I make or even soups.. I read that it was great to help lower blood pressure.. I use in moderation.. I also use purslane ( Yes that pesky weed in my soups.. and stir frys... I have to as they take over my planter beds... Smile. Love your new Do, very becoming ... I also wear mine up , shows my grey beautifully as well as it makes for a great Natural Afro Puff.. Smile. Ninette Bird- The Caribbean Wife, Red Bluff.Ca

[@FyNyth]

I'm sure any of those would be good! Very nice. I like purslane, but it doesn't seem to grow in this area. It did in PA where I grew up though.

[@DinQuay]

AWESOME

[@kenkozma9894]

Hello Ariel; I really appreciate your good taste in video. I agree about dandelion. They are not weeds, and it's a shame that people waste money to poison their edible plants. Also I noticed one morning on a short walk as I was looking down at the grass and when my eyes saw the yellow dandelion it cheered me up a little. Amazing. And now you're making dandelion cookies . They look wonderful, and delicious. I like your nest and thanks for sharing that, cause I have been meaning to ask about the name of your home. May God Bless and keep you in your life and travels, and those you love.

[@kristiethompson3144]

Dip dandelion flowers in egg and coat with coconut flour fry in coconut oil, lightly brown drain on paper towel. Sprinkle with organic white powdered sugar or serve with homemade sryup

[@jeancater1388]

Dandelion wine.♥️

[@bbsbacktobasics7695]

What delicious and nutritious cookie recipe, I will definitely be adding that to my new recipes to make. Thanks for sharing 😀

[@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY]

BB's Back to Basics you will be cooking all day every day 😜

[@KIKI-sy8fl]

Im pretty new to cooking dandelion and then.I found.your video. I just LOVE your video, I love that you are cooking and taking time to speak to us about your ideas and stories. Boy and I love the idea of making dandelion oil! Can't wait to try all these with my preschooler xD Thank you!

[@randyowens2717]

Like!

[@JESUSlovesyouall]

I will be making these! I do make Dandelion Jelly (which tastes like honey and my husband loves it!) and tea so cookies sounds absolutely perfect to try next 😁

[@osseo9947]

Up until 3 years ago I had no idea the dandelion plant was edible. Those cookies look good! You look wonderful with your hair up, really glowing in this video!

[@catyear75]

Hi Ariel! Dandelion is really good to detoxify our livers and blood as well as all the benefits you mentioned. I've never heard of using them in cookies, thanks for broadening my horizons! Your hair looks lovely up in that manner :-)

[@carolynmoody9460]

I make jelly out of the tea..it taste like honey..were I live we call it POOR MAN'S HONEY..SMILE

[@FyNyth]

Nice!

[@grahamconnor3438]

Hi Ariel, excellent recipe. I love foraging for wild food. Always look forward to your videos. 😊

[@kariwick-InnerPeaceCoaching]

Yeah, dandelions! I could not agree with you more about them - and do not get most people’s hatred for them. I love seeing them, they make me happy - and when they are done being cheerful yellow = you get to blow them away, fun all around. Thanks for making me hungry, Kari

[@rimonagale1625]

Thanks Ariel. Sounds yummy & healthy.

[@nancysueleske7819]

I have always loved wild plants. I want to tell you I live only a few hours south of Doug and Stacy. Wish I could see you in August, but at 74, and being a small town gardener now, we enjoy staying close to home with the dogs. Your channel is one of my favorites!

[@FyNyth]

I am usually pretty much a homebody too so I can understand that. If anything changes, I'd love to meet you!

[@nancysueleske7819]

Thank you. If you come this way, we are in Anna IL

[@janie2shoes537]

I make wine with them. Right now I have pomegranate & cherry tea wine brewing.I made video last year making fruit wine.Have a great day !!

[@FyNyth]

Nice!

[@willymags123]

that sounds delicious

[@marilyndenler1370]

A must try. Thank you for sharing!😊

[@jacquelinepaddock7535]

I have made dandelion wine and it tasted just like a good chardonnay. I have also tried making the root into a kind of coffee. You dig up some mature roots, scrub and dry them and roast them in the oven. Then they are ground up and used like coffee grounds, they taste different but not unpleasant and slightly sweet.

[@FyNyth]

I'd like to learn more about wine making someday. I've heard the coffee substitute thing, but not liking coffee personally, I have never tried that.

[@John_Chiasson]

Fy Nyth the trick with gathering the flowers for wine is you don't want the green bit just the yellow. And it takes so many to make a batch of wine that I gather the seeds and force them in a flat - they will still produce a flower even though they are overcrowded and then you can toss them somewhere where they have a chance to grow. :-)

[@elainefarr3155]

What a great idea! I'll have to try them when we finally get some rain and the dandelions come up. Love your dress!

[@willymags123]

you look so pretty Ariel and those cookies look delicious. I wanted to mention there is an imposter dandelion that is poisonous. the only difference between the real deal and the Imposter is the Imposter has fuzzy leaves where as the dandelion does not

[@offthegridoffthegrid4602]

Great idea thanks for sharing

[@WESSERPARAQUAT]

I made these and my dandelions were as fuzzy as kris novaselics bass on breed , will I be OK? I ate like 12 of them the only symptom I got was diarrhea for 5 straight days , verbal

[@marlenejones6266]

I read about the poisonous imposter too. Now I do not want to attempt a dandelion ANYTHING. So it's the leaves that are fuzzy. I forgot what part I had to look for to know the difference. Thanks for the heads up, BEAUTIFUL VICTORY.

[@straubdavid9]

Yes .... I think I'd like them with raisins for sure, although dark chocolate would be a close second! Thanks for sharing .... take care.

[@travelswithrickandzeb725]

👍

[@debrabrickus8467]

Cool idea.🌞 And I love that dress you're wearing, btw.

[@ibelieveintrees]

[@natalienicolaou1]

They look beautiful! Love that bright color :)

[@kenkozma9894]

I'm laughing because it seems I can smell them. They look great. It would be nice to meet and hang out with you, but I don't think I could make any of your destinations. I'll just check your videos. Thanks.

[@FyNyth]

You should patent you're smell via video ability. KZbin would be interested for sure! :)

[@indie825]

I've never out grown my love for dandelions and always thought a lawn poke-a-dotted with them was beautiful. Never made a salad out of them cause I was never sure if it was chemical free and thought it ridiculous to buy them. If I can find/buy the flower I'd try the cookie recipe or the dandelion oil.

[@MegaWhitesox05]

THATS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO FIND TODAY DADELIONS COULD NOT FIND ANY, I WILL TRY TOMORROW AGAIN.GLAD YOU ARE SHOWING WHAT YOU COULD DO WITH THEM , THANKS.

[@blissbliss3531]

WOW Ariel..sunny just like YOU....I never knew this.....fantastic info you have shared here! xoxo Thumbs UP!

[@rebacarmack8335]

You look so nice, and I believe you have a little sunburn.

T-shirt sunburn 😋

[@barbaracarbone4658]

What a great recipe...thanks. They look delicious and I like their color. Enjoy. 😋

[@terrymelanson9116]

beautiful !love the hair up,you are so talented!

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Hi Ariel we enjoyed your video the cookies look delicious

[@mrfixrupr6696]

I love this idea. I am not sure if I am brave enough to try it, but the cookies look amazing and I have plenty of dandelions.

[@FyNyth]

They really taste like a nice honey flavored oatmeal cookie. I think you'll like them . :)

[@moonlitedaze5688]

They look amazing! So glad you showed how to prepare them...have never seen anyone show that before..I guess they assumed everyone knew already! Now if you get time can you show more ways to prepare them...maybe the tea? What do you clean your oven with? TFS this was really fun and informative!!

[@FyNyth]

I plan to do more free foraged food videos as I have time. I find almost all oven cleaning is easy if you heat it up a bit with a pan of water in there. Enough to create steam and soften any buildup. Then as soon as it's cool to the touch, I just use my little stainless steel scrubby and warm water with dish soap to remove the softened dirt.

[@hopeinhim9269]

Dandelion is VERY healthy thing to consume!!! :-) We have made a syrup from them to add to our Kombucha.

[@FyNyth]

Nice! How do you make the syrup?

[@jeanetteschulthe1andOnly]

I will bet caramel/butterscotch chips would be good.

[@jamesparlane9289]

Incredible how the lawn covered with all that snow came back?

[@FyNyth]

Oh yeah, all the plants here have to grow very fast. :)

[@solodad]

Tks Ariel for an other good recipe.

[@gfleming5136]

Ariel, you look very good with your hair up. Never saw it that way before.

[@FyNyth]

Thanks. That's because I hate having it up, but I had just washed it and it get's crazy frizzy if I let it hang loose to dry. :)

[@Svernon2k41]

@@FyNyth it's nice that you wear skits and dresses - unusual these days :-) Is you shower always full off clothes, do you only shower at the gym and is that close to where you live or work? Is you family nearby and do any of your siblings live similarly? What, if anything - besides lights and your water pump uses your solar electric? I love that you cook with your hands, don't measure and clean-up as you go... me too.

[@VarongTangkitphithakphon]

I was about to comment that you should do the taste test too and it was here! Most your recipe video didn't have that and it's essential!

[@timothyhays7889]

My neighbors in PA. used to make dandelion tea. I thought they were whacko. Had i known about the liver qualities, i should have learned how to make it. Thanks for the lesson, you look nice.

[@gregcanady8030]

I love the recipe and also did a double batch like you did. But I did twist the recipe a bit. I did use the coconut oil, but I used a cup of my cannabis infused coconut oil for some added medicinal purposes and turned the heat down to 350 degrees so s not to cook off the terpines.

[@fredhoy6697]

Very interesting. Who would have thought of cookies? My dad made wine from them once which I unfortunately didn't get to taste but was told it was good. Makes sense about being edible though as so many things are. Thanks for sharing.

[@christinaoklaohio7926]

Loved this would love to try them. My dad told me you can eat dandelion many times as a kid but I thought he was joking since we never tried them. Lol

[@nancycolbert2703]

New viewer here. YOU need your own tv cooking show. Such interesting techniques and tips. Love the layout of your tiny house. Do not think I could do without working shower. Question, did you replace recliner chair with wood burning stove?

[@FyNyth]

Welcome! Thanks for joining the Fy Nyth Flock. My shower does work, I just don't use it. :) I did. I tend to curl up on the couch or even in bed to read or work on my laptop so I didn't use the chair much and needed a place for the wood stove. The chair is in a friend's living room now and used every day.

[@craig9843]

Never thought of dandelion cookies-interesting! However, I have heard of the benefits of dandelions for your health. Maybe I should incorporate some into my diet.

[@donnamount151]

Ur hair looks very good up...😄

[@frank9649]

Good afternoon ! First off, thanks for the rain! Mmm that looks tasty, I'll have one with the chips please. :) Have you ever tried roasted dandelion roots? Makes nice tea. Thanks for sharing! Have a great dinner with friend !

[@FyNyth]

I've not done that but would like too.

[@steveb4592]

Nice video. Do you ever harvest wild berries? Such as black raspberries? It would be great to see what you would make with them.

[@FyNyth]

I do with the ones that grow here. Mostly huckleberries, thimbleberries, currents, etc.

[@offline1114]

There was a book called "Eat Your Weeds" (I think)....and there is often great organic, pesticide-free, non-GMO , nutrition that is free too, if we just have the sense to harvest our yard once in a while. : )

[@jacquelinepaddock7535]

Dandelion coffee has a hint of caramel, is caffein free I don't know why it is called coffee really! Because of this it makes quite a nice bedtime drink.

[@jimsteele7108]

Jacqueline Paddock, interesting. I have to try!

[@John_Chiasson]

Jacqueline Paddock it's called coffee because it was used along with chicory as a substitute or extender for coffee when the real stuff was scarce.

[@cherolynwolf5913]

My Mom liked dandelion greens

Arn't you stunning in your black dress as you make cookies to take to the Ball ! I will have to try that. {just the cookies part } atb Paul

You can also use bananas in baking instead of eggs!

Another good substitution!

[@FyNyth]

I plan to! :)

[@rebeccaiya8731]

Very interesting.im preparing for the tail end rain n storms from the hurricane.i would like to try these tho.

[@FyNyth]

I hope you and your place survived everything!

[@bethduffey247]

I was wondering about adding chocolate chips and very glad to hear you suggest them! Also, how about tossing in some walnuts?! Good dose of vitamin D on your skin, while picking those wildflowers!

[@FyNyth]

Walnuts would be great too!

[@Ladythyme]

Looks interesting...just wondering if the heat from baking them would kill all the nutritional value of the dandelions? We’ve made...Dandelion Fritters and of course Dandelion Wine!

[@dfhepner]

Ariel, I wonder what flavor the flowers added to the cookies? It would be interesting to have a test of same cookie with out the dandelion flower next to one with the flower. My neighbor was spraying all the dandelions in their lawn. I thought that I had some growing on my land but they turned out to be something completely different. A two foot plant with small yellow flower. Sort of like a mustard but did not match any of the pictures of mustard plants I found on line. I found that a very little bit of salt will kill the bitter flavor. If you put a couple of grains of salt in a bitter bottle of beer the bitter flavor is gone.

[@FyNyth]

I don't know what to call it. A light flowery flavor? It's not a strong or very distinct taste to me, but I like it.

[@jimsteele7108]

3:05, now I know how you stay so fit!

[@northfielder1789]

My lawn could give yours a good run as for dandelions and weeds... just saying lol

[@FyNyth]

Better eat your lawn too then! ;)

[@jimsteele7108]

Ok, so if I incorporate dandilions along with my Captain Morgan, it should counteract liver damage? Count me in!!

[@John_Chiasson]

tree feller just make some dandelion syrup and add some club soda for the perfect healthy mix! :p

[@FyNyth]

Well, while I do enjoy an occasional drink, I can't say I'd encourage too much alcohol consumption in general due to it's toxicity to the human body. But if you are going to drink, I do recommend eating lots of dandelions! :)

[@tanfo8]

Got a ton of those weeds..maybe I’ll make cookies

[@GinaLGuccione]

Will you be presenting on Monday at the conference as well as Sunday? I live very close to there and work Sundays but can make it out Monday and would love to here your tips and tricks and meet as well. Thanks, GG

[@FyNyth]

Yes I will be presenting both days, but different topics. I don't think all the speaking times are quite worked out yet so I can't give you exact times. Hope to see you there!

[@fredmoller1675]

AHH, mmmmmmmm, they look great, Ariel, and I bet that they taste even better! Did you ever try Dandelion wine or the coffee from the dried roots?.....this so called weed has so many vitamins and minerals that people should respect the Dandelion a lot more than it is given.

[@FyNyth]

I've had tea, and cooked greens in various forms. I'd be happy to try the wine, not a coffee fan though. I don't know how much it really tastes like coffee....

[@fredmoller1675]

Being Canadian, we love our coffee, look at all the Tim Horton's, six in my small city, of 45,000 people......I read that the Dandelion roots, dried are a coffee 'substitute' like Chicory is too.

[@FyNyth]

Yeah, most Americans do as well, I'm just weird. Don't like the taste or smell. I've heard that, I just always wondered if I might actually like some of the things people call coffee substitutes, or if they would all be too similar for me. :)

[@fredmoller1675]

Don't get me wrong, I love tea too, mostly Orange Pekoe, boiled and boiled some more, with lemon and honey.....it gives me that 'lift' that I need some times, lol.

[@tesselaynes5428]

I lived in Calgary Alberta back in 81 and found out that if you dont poison the yard to kill the dandelions you will get an almost 300 dollar fine. There was a few families in one house next door and they sent their ten kids out to dig up some dandelions by the root with a screwdriver and then sadly I had to poison us according to the messed up law.

[@FyNyth]

That's terrible! I'd move for sure if at all possible. It's so sad how ignorant we've become about good nutrition and health.

[@charlesdorey4343]

Low heat will bring your honey back to liquid.

[@wanderingrose9335]

Just found your channel, really enjoying your video. Have you ever made dandelion honey before, if so do you have a video on it.

[@FyNyth]

I have not personally done that, but I know other folks do so I'm sure someone has a how-to.

[@chrystalfizer9332]

What did you do after you soaked them in salt water? It seems like the video just stops and you start filming on a different day with a different batch of flowers. Do you air dry them or do not wash them because you are picking off the leaves? What about the ones you used in the oil? Did you wash those as well? How thoroughly do they have to dry before you use them for different recipes? Sorry about all the questions, I'm just curious.

[@FyNyth]

Yeah they just air dry. To go in oil, you do want them very dry so you're not adding water into the oil so I just let them sit on the counter for a day or two for that.

[@MajorSeventh]

Wew lass, you sunburn like I do. Irish/Norwegian.

[@feltingme]

I am wondering, if we need sugary thing in them for consistency or we could use stevia extract or maybe even no sweetener at all.

[@FyNyth]

I think you could do either way.

[@JW-es5un]

Sounds interesting. We cannot consume our dandelions. (due to our dogs & Barn cats. We have wild coyotes that come on our property)

[@FyNyth]

Hmmm... Why do the cats and dogs prevent eating dandelions?

[@sisterspooky]

Love the hairstyle! You need to do a “how to” on it! :)

[@FyNyth]

Ha! This is my "I just washed my hair and have things to do and if it dries down, it get's crazy frizzy fix." Turn your head upside down when your hair is sopping wet. Grab all of it and twist into a wad. Use at least three little clips to hold it in place. :)

[@corinnecorley9584]

I have a couple of comments and a couple of questions. First of all thank you very much for sharing this and for including comments about substitutions. I try to be gluten free and I'm also allergic to honey. So I really appreciate your notes about what else we can use besides your choices. I also can't have coconut oil so it would be good to try this recipe with a different kind of oil and sweetener. I do want to mention that as a hearing impaired person I often have a lot of trouble understanding what you are saying when you are cooking because of the noise of the packaging and the sound of your implements hitting the bowls and cups. That must be a consequence of the proximity of your camera or mic to where you are working. I also wanted to ask the make and model of your refrigerator. And what its height and width is. I have the next size smaller in my tiny house and I think that your refrigerator would likely fit in the space that I have and I really need a little more room than I have in my refrigerator. Thank you very much for this recipe. I don't have a lot of dandelions here but I'm going to talk to people I know who have yards and see if I can convince them to let me have their dandelion flowers. Keep up your videos, as a tiny house dweller who makes videos that are not widely circulated and only viewed by my friends, I am that jealous of your wide circulation! Seriously, your videos are awesome. I am from Missouri and have a business trip schedule to Kansas City around the time you're going to be in Missouri, and I'm going to try and arrange things so I can come up and hear you. I am a big fan of yours and your videos have been very instrumental in some of my choices as I've gone tiny. Thank you.

[@FyNyth]

I'm sorry for you hearing difficulty. I could buy a much more expensive mic, but can't place it very far away obviously in such a small space. Have you ever used the closed caption (cc) feature? You should see it right along the bottom of any youtube video. If you click on the "cc" it pops up the words along the bottom of the screen. It's auto generated, so just like when you do that with the news on TV, it's not perfect, but you might find it helpful. A full review of my fridge with a link to the same model is here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmObhJqufcuoe7M&lc=z23isllxdzm3fty0facdp433clwbp50k15ybznomdqpw03c010c.1517098799966006 I hope that works out and you can make it!

[@corinnecorley9584]

Fy Nyth ah, no! Did not realize I could CC. Thanks! I will do that. Thanks for the fridge info! Be well.

[@flatlandah52]

very good video, but I think you forgot to list salt and baking powder/soda in your recipe. :)

[@FyNyth]

Fixed it, thank you!

[@TrueBeliever6491]

I wonder if a person could dip the flower heads in batter and fry like mushrooms? I have done that with ditch lilies (also known as tiger lilies) and they tasted like mushrooms. Thanks for this recipe, I will have to give it a try. You look beautiful.

[@FyNyth]

I have only fried them without batter personally, but I've seen others do this so I'm sure you can!
