Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1/2 c Cream
2 ea Egg
1 tb Sugar
1 ts Salt
4 tb Vinegar
1/4 c Butter
1 x Paprika
1 x Pepper
4 ea Sl Bacon, thick
1 x Dandelion

Carefully wash and prepare the dandelion as you would lettuce. Roll in
cloth and pat dry. Then put into a salad bowl and place in warm
place. Cut bacon in small pieces, fry quickly and drop over the
dandelions. Put the butter and cream into a skillet and melt over a
slow fire. Beat eggs, add salt, pepper, sugar and vinegar and mix
with slightly warm cream mixture. Pour into skillet and under
increased heat, stir until dressing becomes thick like custard. Take
off and pour piping hot over dandelion. Stir thoroughly. Never use
dandelion after it has begun to flower, for then it is apt to be
bitter. Source: Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book - Fine Old Recipes,
