For a milder flavor, soak the dandelion greens in cold water for 15-20 minutes before using. If you prefer a sweeter salad, add a drizzle of honey or a splash of balsamic vinegar. Consider adding other fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an extra layer of flavor. To elevate the dish, top it with crumbled goat cheese or toasted nuts for added richness and texture.
