Using roses and rose water, or rose syrup, would be a great way of getting the scent, flavour and your wonderful colour. (Alternatively rose syrup could simply be drizzled over.)

I'm originally from Poland and my family is used to collect wild rose petals and make amazingly fragrant jam from those. I love it mixed 1:1 with plum preserves - that makes the best jam ever! I have moved recently and I'm delighted cause just in front of my flat there are lots of wild rose bushes! I'm already collecting the recipes of what apart from the traditional family recipe to do with those (I just hope they won't be blooming during my holidays ;) ). I'll save your recipe for future, hope I'll give it a try later in the summer :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8716434485439618533.post-53787531771730476282010-06-11T00:54:45.211+02:002010-06-11T00:54:45.211+02:00Wow!.

I had no idea Dahl had written a collection of recipes. I do remember enjoying reading his book "The Twits" as a boy, especially the part where Mrs. Twit prepares worms instead of spaghetti for her husband! But this is a truly terrific recipe - our roses are just about still at their peak too - what a fabulous idea and what an intriguing perfume the sorbet must have!Jonnyhttp://weareneverfull.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8716434485439618533.post-2107544267775932022010-06-07T06:42:43.132+02:002010-06-07T06:42:43.132+02:00Wow!
