Rosebuds & Petals

The notion of using roses to flavor food may seem slightly odd to Western cultures, but Rose petals have been used to flavor foods, wines and liqueurs for centuries. Use them in desserts, salads, syrups, jellies, to make perfumed butters, sweet spreads, and rose water or freeze them in ice cubes to put in beverages. Used mainly for color and garnish, rose petals add a sweet and unique floral flavor to your food.
