Rozha z tsukrom (rose preserve)
10 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | cups | Rose petals |
| 4 | cups | Sugar |
| Juice of one lemon | ||
| 2 | tablespoons | Rum |
Directions
Pick the petals over, removing any debris, leaves, stamens or insects.
Coarsely chop 1 cup of petals in a processor then add 1 cup of sugar and half of the lemon juice, 1 Tb of rum, and another cup of sugar.
Mix for a minute, scraping the sides of the processor bowl. Repeat with the rest of the petals and other ingredients. Pack into small jars (about 1 cup), rapping lightly to release air bubbles. Cover and keep in a cool place.
NOTE: This will last up to a year. It is used sparingly, so small jars are practical.
