This reminded me of playing in a field of flowers and having fun with my best friend when I was 6. I haven’t eaten dandelions since I was a child.

I love that you made something so rich and delicious with a green as healthy as dandelion-that's nice. Oh, and thanks for reminding me that I need saffron-been meaning to get some! Hey Silvie, yum!

I love the addition of the dandelions--they just started showing up in our farmer's market! I've used them in salads and breads before, but never risotto. What beautiful risotto!

Cheers, Kristy p/s you must try the stew sea cucumber with meat next time! Haha…I bet you thought the sea cucumber is something like cucumbers!

I never tried cooking risotto at home. There is a similar kind of "wet rice" in Asian that, to me, resembles risotto. Sea cucumbers dishes can vary widely in Chinese restaurants. I have eaten lousy ones that I would not even touch after one bite and have tried really delicious sea cucumbers, perfectly braised to melt-in-the-mouth texture. Don't give up on sea cucumbers :) I love the striking colors of your risotto – the green, the yellow and that red! I never tried cooking risotto at home.

J'ai aussi vu sur un blog en France une recette de confiture de fleurs de pissenlits! A part ça, je suis tout a fait d;accord avec toi, les americains exagèrent avec la cannelle; mais au Liban, on n'en mets que dans les plats salés, jamais dans les douceurs!
