- Make sure that the plant is not grown by using chemical fertilizers; in its place use cow dung or decomposed leaves or vegetables.
- Collect leaves before the bloom bud appears, or before the stalk grows as they will taste bitter if you wait too long.
- You can directly chew leaves, stem or flowers but make sure to wash the portions well with water.
- Dandelion root can be a good alternate of a coffee.
- Dandelion greens can also be cooked. You can boil greens for five minute in water, then season it with salt and butter and eat them hot.
