To many people, dandelion is a nuisance weed that readily invades lawns and patio crevices. While the plant does indeed have exceptional survival skills, it is also globally recognized as a useful herb with potent antioxidant and nutritive qualities. The entire plant is edible and is a good source of fiber, protein, B complex vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and zinc. Dandelion also provides a significant amount of beta-carotene, which the body uses to produce vitamin A.
The practice of using roasted dandelion root to produce a coffee-like beverage first gained popularity in the mid-1800s and is still going strong. Dandelion root "coffee" has robust flavor, full body and is naturally sweet because of natural fructose, but is free of acid, bitterness and caffeine.
Roasted dandelion root's flavor profile is similar to roasted turnips in flavor with a mildly bitter note. Blends well with chicory root, cinnamon and cocoa.
