Rose Petal Jam

(from Tinuviel’s recipe box)

Cook time: 20 minutes

Categories: Jams, To Try

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups rose petals, preferably red/pink
  • 2 tablespoons lemon
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 2 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 oz. pectin

Directions

  1. Trim white parts of half of the rose petals. Bruise them with half the sugar, and put into refrigerator. This gives the petals a chance to perfume the sugar.

  2. After several days, cut and trim the other half of the rose petals. Combine sugared petals, un-sugared petals, lemon, rest of sugar, water, and pectin in a small pot.

  3. Let the jelly simmer on medium high for about 20 min. Once it has reduced a little and become like a syrup,scoop it into sterilized jars.
