Scot made some Dandelion Jelly this weekend. We used our special dandelion sniffing dog to help find the star ingredient.

Scot had to use scissors and trim the petals from the flower stem, and then he collected about four cup fulls. (We have a lot of dandelions.) The petals of the flower are surprisingly sweet, not bitter like the rest of the plant.

The final result! Beautiful honey coloured jelly. It has a mild flavour but quite tasty. We used our certo mint jelly recipe to make it. It set-up quite well.
