“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important”
“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
Tomorrow I’ll fly to Oporto and I fill myself with an anticipated happiness: my rose is unmatched in the entire world.
Candied rose petals:
10 rose petals
1 pasteurised egg white
50 g sugar
Wash and dry gently the petals.
Brush the petals with the egg white.
Completely coat the petals with sugar.
Let them dry in a dry place or in the oven at 35ºC for a couple of hours.

A pinch of vanilla, eggs, sugar and cocoa... Unmeasured words, seasoned silences... stir all that I am and set aside in bain marie...

Boa viagem!
Wow – These are spectacular. Did you assemble the individual petals into a whole rose flower, or did you make coat one entire rose with the egg white and sugar?
Que coisa linda Leonor! Muito elegante! Pasatelo bien en Oporto.
This is gorgeous, I’m just a little confused as to how/if you get the petals back into a rose and make it stay. Or do you have them in the cup?
Truly amazing, a wonderful idea.
