Rose Petal Ice:
2 cups Milk 1 cup Sugar 1 cup Rose petals, organic or
unsprayed
1/2 cup whole skinless almonds 3 to 4 drops Red food
colouring
In a heavy bottomed sauce pan heat milk, sugar and rose
petals (reserving a few for garnish) over moderate heat
until almost boiling. Puree mixture in a blender with
almonds. Add natural food colouring and strain. Chill
thoroughly and process in an ice cream maker. Serve in
chilled glasses with a few fresh rose petals for garnish.
This recipe yields 4 servings. Comments: Most roses from the
florist are treated (rendering them unfit for consumption),
but there are organic roses available for cooking from some
specialty herb growers. Look for some red which add color
and some pink which have more flavor. If you grow your own
and don't spray them, they would be fine for this recipe
provided you wash the petals briefly.
