Mieli Thun Tarassaco
Deep yellow dandelion honey by Mieli Thun with a pungent nose and a vanilla-chamomile taste, jars of 28–400 g.
Mieli Thun Tarassaco is a dandelion honey; the plant flowers from March to May at altitudes up to 1,700 m. The producer stresses the contrast between smell and taste.
The nose is pungent: sulphur, ammonia, vinegar, wet hay, roots and cheese rind. In the mouth, though, it is moderately sweet, with vanilla touches and a clear note of chamomile tea. The colour is an intense yellow. Companion pollens listed: rapeseed, apple, wild cherry and goat willow. Jars: 28, 250 and 400 g.
Why this matters to you: Mieli Thun suggests it for bitter cooking greens and for glazing pork, which gives it a clear role in the kitchen.
