Dandelion Salad
Prep Time
20 minutes
Prep Notes
Clean Dandelion ahead of time. Dandelion can be very sandy, so clean well.
Here's a BIG tip:
Fill sink with water, cut off dandelion root and discard or compost. Put leaves in sink with water swish around till dirt falls off then place on a dry towel, or put into salad spinner to dry.
* If super dirty, it may need another washing. I have a twin sink, so I fill one sink with lukewarm water and the other with cold water. I place the dandelion into the lukewarm water sink first then into the cold water sink for extra measure. Works like a charm!
