Dandelion leaves are used to add flavor to salads, sandwiches, and teas. The roots are used in some coffee substitutes, and the flowers are used to make wines. In the past, dandelion roots and leaves were used to treat liver problems.
The dandelion is a perennial plant. The oblong or spatulate, irregularly dentate or pinnatifid leaves grow in a rosette from the milky taproot, which also send up one or more naked flower stems, each terminating in a single yellow flower. In Berkshire and Worcestershire, the flowers are used in the preparation of a beverage known as Dandelion Wine. 2  The roasted roots are largely used to form Dandelion Coffee, which is a natural beverage without any of the injurious effects that ordinary tea and coffee have on the nerves and digestive organs.
