Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Edible rose petals (unsprayed or organically grown)
- 1 large Egg white
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Water
Instructions
Carefully inspect the rose petals to ensure they are clean and free of dirt or insects. Gently rinse them in cool water and pat dry with a paper towel. Make sure they are completely dry before continuing.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg white with 1 teaspoon of water until frothy. This will help it adhere better to the petals.
Prepare a shallow dish or plate with an even layer of granulated sugar. Set this aside for coating the petals later.
Using a small, clean paintbrush (food-safe), carefully brush a light layer of the egg white mixture onto both sides of a rose petal. Be thorough but avoid oversaturating.
Immediately sprinkle the brushed petal with granulated sugar, ensuring it is evenly coated on both sides. Gently shake off any excess sugar.
Place the coated petal on a wire rack or a parchment-lined baking sheet to dry. Repeat the process for each petal.
Allow the petals to dry in a cool, dry place for at least 24 hours or until they are completely crisp and dry to the touch.
Once dry, store the crystallised rose petals in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
