Homemade Rose Petal Confit
Rose petal confit, also known as rose petal jam, is a sweet and fragrant syrup made by simmering edible rose petals in a mixture of sugar, water, and lemon juice until translucent. This versatile condiment has been enjoyed for centuries in countries such as Iran, Turkey, and India, where roses are grown abundantly and used in a variety of culinary applications. Its delicate floral flavor and aroma make it perfect for topping desserts, filling cakes and pastries, or adding a touch of sweetness and floral aroma to savory dishes. Homemade rose petal confit is easy to make and can be stored in a sterilized jar in the fridge for up to a month.
