Steps:
- Combine dandelion blossoms, cold water, and sliced lemon in a large pot; bring to a boil. Continue to boil for 15 minutes. Let cool and sit, covered, for 24 to 48 hours.
- Strain through a very fine sieve or linen cloth over a pot, trying to squeeze as much juices out as possible.
- Add sugar to this juice and simmer to a syrupy consistency, stirring often, 45 minutes to 3 hours. The "honey" will also get a more syrupy consistence after it cools. Do not boil vigorously or you might get hard candy after it cools down!
- Meanwhile, inspect 4 jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until honey is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
- Fill jars while still hot, screw on lids, and turn upside down for about 5 minutes--this seals the jars like bought ones so they will actually "plop" when you open them.
