Dandelions putting the whole family as previously agreed)) Despite the frightening number of pieces, we did it very quickly, in about 15 minutes (scored even more, the excess had to be excluded). We bring home and cut off from the rosebud, the green part, leaving some of the petals. Households, of course, fled, but in 30 minutes I got the right amount. To be honest, at first I assumed I would spend hours on doing this, but this is done very quickly.

The petals fill with water, add the star anise (as many as 3 stars), sliced lemon and ginger. Lemons was able to get a couple extra there would be, we were one. Put on fire and bring to a boil. Boil 5-7 minutes, turn off and let cool in the pan (just leave overnight).

Our morning strain the broth, pressing the petals. Add the sugar and put it on the stove, bring to a boil. Sugar pointed to the approximate amount (the sweetness is different, and everyone has different tastes).

When the syrup-jam is boiling, get a picture here. Skim off the foam, reduce the flame and cook on low heat for 1-1.5 hours.

Very tasty obtained if the jam add the walnuts (in principle, I think, of any). Boil for about 10 minutes with the syrup.

Pour in jars. Jars, I just rinsed them with boiling water, for long storage didn't bet)))
