Dandy Burger

 

 

It's game time. My boy is scheduled to take the mound today. I deliver the pep talk and then hand him a shot of nourishment. A sports drink? An energy bar? Nah. I hand him a hot Dandy Burger.Yes, I've gone off the deep end. Just when you thought I was done with $ & @%# dandelions...What can I say? I had a fresh crop on the lawn.This recipe comes from a member of the Forage Ahead . I adapted it slightly, adding more flour and onion plus an egg.1 cup packed dandelion petals (no greens)1 cup flour1 egg1/4 cup milk1/2 cup chopped onions1/4 tsp salt1/2 tsp garlic powder1/4 tsp each basil and oregano1/8 tsp pepperMix all ingredients together. The batter will be wet and goopy. Form into patties and pan fry in oil or butter, turning until crisp on both sides. Makes 4-5 very nutritious veggie burgers.The Mariners bullpen could use a few of these.

Thanks for sharing this. I am always looking for unusual

and good ways to make the most of foraging our “weeds” which grow

so easily!!! But, I have a question … do you know if those wonderful

dandelion tops will freeze without changing their taste, (like to bitter?) Or

perhaps when one has a “bumper crop” to harvest one would be better

drying them? Thanks for any info. Joyce Simmerman
