Today was the second annual Dandelion Wine Day here at TNH Central. Anhata, Laura and I and the kids went out and picked all the remaining dandelions in the yard. We got exactly two quarts, which is what we needed for our favorite recipe, which is #2 of the 42 recipes on that page. Unlike the recipe, though, we keep the sepals--the green part at the bottom of the flower--on. We like the slightly bitter taste it gives the finished product. Hata has the pictures and we're going to document the making this time for the site. Last year's batch turned out great; we still have most of a bottle left here and Hata has some left too.
