Dandelion Medicine, 2nd Edition is a colorful dive into the many
creative uses of dandelions for food and medicine. From dandelion root
"coffee" to dandelion flower cookies, there are dozens of delicious ways
to use the plant in food, and all parts of the dandelion are medicinal
in a variety of ways. Dandelion is a flower that almost everyone knows
from a young age, so there's little danger of harvesting the wrong
plant--making it ideal for the novice forager. Author Brigitte Mars has
been an herbalist for more than 50 years, and has developed an extensive
knowledge of and love for the plant over that time. In addition to
providing ideas for ways to use the plant, she also shares some of the
history and lore surrounding the dandelion, creating a book that is both
a practical guide and a fascinating read.
