Dandelion Salad

Dandelion has a bitter edge and combines well with something sweet. Using only balsamic vinegar in the salad dressing, rather than mixing it with a more acidic vinegar gives the right amount of sweetness to the dandelion. Junior uses wild dandelion in his salad.

• 1 large bunch dandelions
• 3 tablespoons olive Oil
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• Salt & pepper to taste

METHOD

Wash dandelions thoroughly and dry between two towels. Cut into bite size pieces.
