Dandelion Greens, Wild Weed or Nutritious Superfood?
SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE!: bit.ly/2OsRhsi
Dandelion greens are the aerial portion of the dandelion plant, one of the most popular wild edibles probably known around the globe. Often considered to be a type of weed that needs to be eradicated, dandelion's and their tooth-shaped leaves can actually be a nutritious and "free" source of food once properly identified.
Providing medicinal use as a "digestive bitter", they contain compounds commonly referred to as CGA and CRA. Learn more about nutritional attributes and other potential health-enhancing properties.

You can find local organic dandelion greens in specialty grocery stores. I buy a red ribbed variety that is beautiful and delicious, my canaries think it is heavenly, as well.

NOW Organics so dandelion are those weeds that grow in your lawn and around flower beds? I didn't know they were edible
I have to eat 5 ounces per day of any dark leafy greens. Works extremely well to keep away acne
You can also eat the flowers and make jam out of them :)

I am a gardener and I noticed that Dandelion leaves here can get 3 inches wide and as tall as an arm and less bitter If they grow in deep nutritios soil. It is quite amusing to eat some of the wild weeds instead of using poison to keep them away and have to buy or grow green leafy veggies that have been breeded to taste sweeter and they can taste worse If not properly grown and get eaten by larvaes instead.

I eat the leaves and roots two or three times a week.
What foods are cooling an drying?
I'll never look at a potato peeler the same way again
What if the soil was treated with pesticides, in the past. Do they regenerate after time to be eaten? A very nice video Thank you.

It was once grown in the U.S. as a food source. Same as U.S. grown hemp for textiles. What happened to us?
Can I pick a bunch in the summer and keep them in the freezer during the winter?

Yes. I puree them and freeze them into cubes. I mainly use them in smoothies. Can also make a really good pesto with garlic.
Taproots 6-11" in length? I've pulled up dandelions with taproots at least 3 ft long (and the end was broken off).

Yes, all parts of the plant are edible. You can also make tea from the leaves, use them in smoothies and salads. I suddenly had a huge patch and started eating them. The leaves are a very strong diuretic, so be prepared!
Soooo,how often can we eat it as a salad. What do you do with the flower...??

Blend into smoothies too.
I ate a pound of dandelion only smoothie at 5:06 that is NOT a dandelion smoothie, it is much darker than that.
I like to carry them around in a little bag so that when I go to mcdonalds or burger king I can whip them out and stick them into my burgers. Tastes great. :D
