Dandelion salad was a frugal and healthy recipe popular during the Great Depression. Dandelion greens are loaded with vitamins and minerals!
Dandelion greens taste wickedly bitter, but that’s also part of their appeal. That bitterness signals many of dandelion’s potent medicinal compounds, the very compounds that are responsible for both its nutritive quality and its ability to support digestion.Bitterness finds balance in salty and sour flavors, which is why the greens partner so well with robust flavors such as lemon, anchovies, and caraway seeds. The trick in using caraway seeds in this recipe is to leave them whole. Caraway powder would obscure the flavor of the bread crumbs, but when you leave the seeds whole, you’ll crunch down on them as you eat the salad, allowing the seeds to release all their brightness in one bite before you move on to the next.This recipe is from my third cookbook, Vibrant Botanicals (Ten Speed Press, 2021).
