My wife read somewhere once that you could make tea from the blossoms. We tried it. Once. It was nasty.When I met my wife in 1972 she made dandelion wine in one on those 5 gallon glass bottles people put coins in. I helped pick lots of dandelions, it had oranges, lemons, sugar & yeast in it. After sitting for weeks it got pretty nasty looking and this big blob would float to the top, air would come out, sink down, repeat.
No one would drink it.
Now if they could only make it taste like pizza.Kale is a nutrition superstar due to the amounts
of vitamins A, B6, C, K, folate, fiber, carotenoids
and manganese it contains. One cup of raw kale
has just 20 calories. The Department of
Agriculture's MyPlate recommends any child
and adult who is over the age of 9 eat at least
1.5-2 cups of dark-green vegetables every
week.
I don't mind beet greens, dandelion greens (early in the season only) or swiss chard. Kale, not so much.
