Let me explain. In Sicily there is the concept of hot and cool foods. Naturally all fries items are deemed hot, along with tomatoes, eggplants and zucchine. The long smooth Sicilian squash is cool, along with dandelion, lettuce, escarole, fava beans etc. This concept is also prevalent in Far East cuisines.
The dish proposed in this post is simplicity in itself. Wash the dandelion well and simply boil in salted water. The extra water should be saved for soups or minerstre. Now take one small clove of garlic, squash it and put it on the bottom of a soup plate. Add the dandelion and cover with the cooking water. Sprinhle black pepper and put in a nice amount of good EVO. It's ready. A good slice of lightly toasted rustic Italian bread adds to the eating pleasure. This dish is healthy, delicious, simple and very economic.
Buon Appetito.
