Ingredients:
- a handfull of Dandelion blossoms
- 150ml water
- 150g raw cane sugar
- zest and juice of half a lemon
- collect the Dandelions.. duh. Depending on where you're from, this stuff crows literally everywere (and the leaves will make a great pesto as well). Just make sure it's a bit off the road, cause you don't want this fumes and dust in your food.
- remove all stalks and give them a quick wash with cold water
- put them in a pot with your 150ml and let them sit for 2 hours
- bring everything to a quick boil, and let them sit for another 6 hours at least or over night (you should probably plan that ahead)
- no you can finally remove the Dandelions, their job is done
- put in sugar and lemon and bring it to a slight simmer for aobout an hour, but keep an eye on it
- as soon as it starts to thicken up a bit you can fill it in a clean jar, don't worry it will thicken up a lot more while cooling down
- (optional) befor you fill it up you can whisk this up with whatever machine you have for this (however, don't do this by hand, that's a royal pain in the a***). This will take some time, but the incooperated air, will make it creamy easier spreadable.
