Anyone else eat hat bacon dressing with dandelion over potatoes in the spring? 

A rite of spring in our parts, church suppers etc. To cleanse your blood they say. I love it.

No.  But, my mother use to make danadelion wine when I was a small child.  At least that is what it was called.  Of course none of us kids had any of it.

I love to make a salad with just red wine vinegar and olive oil.

My grandmother made dandelion in a hot salad for my aunts  and uncles, I thought it was a German thing. I never liked the taste of it, but my uncle made dandelion wine and I really liked that.LOL

@blackhole99 it is German. Ours is like a sweet-sour gravy served over boiled potatoes.

I could find a Dandelion wine recipe if your thirsty.

My grandfather used to make dandelion wine, this was many years ago and I never tasted it.

I love dandelion!  I chop it in 1inch  pieces and stir fry with onion and garlic.  Then I add cooked coursely chopped potatoes and lots of olive oil and salt.

The wine doesn't sound very appealing but cooked, it sounds delish.
