Ingredients

  • new blossoms on short stems
  • 1 c. lowfat milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt warm veg. oil
  • 1 x egg
  • 1 c. flour
  • 1 pch pepper

Directions

  1. Pick new dandelion blossoms, those on short stems, and rinse well in cold, lightly salted water.
  2. Cut off the stem ends close to the flower heads, leaving only sufficient to hold the petals together, because the stems and greenery are bitter.
  3. Roll the dandelion flowers in paper towels to blot up the excess moisture, then dip each one in a batter made of 1 egg, beaten, with 1 c. lowfat milk, 1 c. flour, 1/2 tsp. salt and a healthy pinch of pepper.
  4. Drop the batter-coated blossoms into deep warm fat (375 degrees) and fry till lightly browned.
  5. Drain on absorbent paper;
  6. Sprinkle with more salt, if needed, and serve at once as a warm hors d'oeuvre.
