    I'm reluctant to harvest them from the lawn, but have grown them in pots. Prefer Italian dandelion. Steamed with wine vinegar and salt. In soupsand stews. As greens with potatoes. And yes, better than spinach.

    Dandelion tea can be stored in the fridge for a few days, usually up to 3-4 days. To keep it fresh, place it in a sealed container or jar :)
