The dandichoke is debatably the best part of the dandelion. Like an artichoke, the dandichoke is below the emerging flowers, unusual in November! It is the self-blanched white part which is between the top of the root and the surface of the soil, a real gourmet vegetable which is free for the taking….but which most people just walk by… :(
This was harvested and used in yesterday’s salad, 15th November 2015! See http://www.edimentals.com/blog/?page_id=2778

My mind is going thru some expansion here! …Always loved the fresh flowers in a salad, but this is real creative thinking at work! Love it!
