Discover the nutritious and versatile Taraxacum officinale, commonly known as the Common Dandelion. This resilient plant grows up to 70cm tall, producing one to more than ten stems that hold bright yellow or orange-yellow flower heads. The leaves are edible and can be served raw or cooked, though blanching can reduce the bitter taste. The roots also have a turnip-like flavor and can be enjoyed raw or cooked as well. Dandelion leaves are highly nutritious and packed with essential vitamins and minerals including calcium, iron, and vitamins B1, B2, and C. You can grow your own with ease as dandelions are adaptable plants that bloom from March until October. Don't miss out on the opportunity to add this superfood to your diet and enjoy its unique taste.
