Crystal Rose Petal Jam image

For the most fragrant and attractive jam use brightly colored tea roses, or any other fragrant roses. I am using light pink roses from my garden - although they do not make the most colorful jam, I am sure the roses are not sprayed. I am suggesting a small batch recipe for those, who, just like me, only have one or two rose bushes. The recipe can be doubled.

Time 57m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 ounces freshly picked rose petals
½ cup white sugar, divided
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Wash rose petals and dry them using a salad spinner or paper towels. Trim and discard white bases of petals.
  • Place rose petals in a bowl; add 2 tablespoons sugar. Rub petals with your hands until sugar draws out liquid from the petals. Pour liquid into a separate bowl and reserve.
  • Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in remaining 6 tablespoons sugar. Cook over medium heat for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool, about 15 minutes.
  • Place rose petals in the cooled syrup. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, and cook, about 5 minutes. Add reserved liquid. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally and skimming off any foam that rises to the top, until syrup is reduced, about 15 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of rose flavor, so I'm not sure I'll like this jam.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my jam didn't set properly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This jam is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
