Description
Though their yellow heads are flowers to us, and they’re actually a member of the daisy family, botanists consider the dandelion to be an herb, the entire body of a dandelion from bloom to stem is edible. They actually have more nutrients and are better for you than many of the vegetables in your garden.
Not only can the leaves, roots, and flower add a pop of color to your plate, but they’re also often found in herbal teas and supplements, where they’re used as a natural remedy to support blood sugar management and boost skin, liver, and heart health.
Today, dandelion is promoted as a “tonic,” as a diuretic, and for a variety of conditions, including infections and digestive symptoms. As a food, dandelion is used as a salad green and in soups, wine, and teas. The roasted root is used as a coffee substitute.
Don’t think of dandelions as just a pest to your yard, they’re beautiful and harmless, and loads of fun for children. From making wishes on the dandelion puff to picking a little bouquet without getting in trouble, kids have been using dandelions as playthings for centuries. With their flavorful and nutritious qualities, you could consider them a part of your garden.
