Daikon's a problem whenever you try to put it at the front of a dish; a little on the side or buried in the center and it works better.billjachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09260406336065905545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-493144429387237025.post-13784888326283899912009-04-03T13:24:00.000-04:002009-04-03T13:24:00.000-04:00Did the daikon's slightly bitter taste mellow with...Did the daikon's slightly bitter taste mellow with the spices?

If you've got millions you're probably not putting down weed-killer so they're likely safe to eat.<BR/><BR/>From what I've read, there are a few different species of dandelions so you should try a leaf or two to see how the particular ones in your yard taste. And remember that they get more bitter as they age (don't we all?) so pick the younger leaves. If all the leaves you try are nasty, see what boiling them with baking soda does. It's a common preparation to make them more palatable. <BR/><BR/>Oh, the yellow flowers are edible too so don't forget them!billjachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09260406336065905545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-493144429387237025.post-57896232568814874702009-04-01T10:13:00.000-04:002009-04-01T10:13:00.000-04:00Hmmm perhaps I should save all the millions of dan...Hmmm perhaps I should save all the millions of dandelions that grow in my yard & cook them upkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462007067131792229noreply@blogger.com
