Oh, the wonders of the dandelion family! In Japan, the white dandelion is a star, with its delicately bitter leaves and snow-white blooms that are a delight for both the eyes and taste buds. This gentle dandelion grows wild in the sunny southern parts of the country and is highly valued for its culinary and medicinal properties. The leaves are lightly boiled into Ohitashi, a Japanese dish that's as fun to say as it is to eat. And the snowy blooms? They're given a light batter and fried to perfection for tempura, a dish that's crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The long tap root is also a prized ingredient in many Japanese dishes and is known for its medicinal benefits.
So if you're feeling adventurous, why not grow a trifecta of dandelions in pink, yellow, and white? Not only will you have a perfectly pretty pastel presentation, but you'll also have a bounty of tasty and nutritious plants to enjoy!
