Rose Petal Jelly image

Rose jelly is sweet and floral, and is lovely on buttered bread. Make it with roses you grow yourself to be sure they're chemical free. You will need liquid pectin (to thicken the jelly) and rose water for flavor. These are available in most supermarkets.

I had some trouble finding rose petals, but I eventually found them at a local florist. They were a bit pricey, but they were worth it for the delicious jelly I was able to make.

I found that the jelly turned out a bit too tart for my taste. Next time, I'll add a little more sugar to the recipe.

I'm not usually a fan of floral flavors, but I was pleasantly surprised by this jelly. The rose flavor is subtle and not overpowering, and it pairs really well with the sweetness of the sugar.
