Rosa Rugosa
"JennyC" wrote "Janet Baraclough" wrote I have made that, but not for many years! I've been thinking of making rosehip syrup, though, using the wild rose hips on the hedgerows (better for red colour than r glauca). Do you have a recipe? What does one do with the syrup ?? BBC Woman's Hour wartime recipe: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/womansho...recipe93.shtml OR http://homecooking.about.com/library...e/blfruit9.htm My Mum tells me that during the war she used to earn a few pennies along with other children by going out collecting bags of rosehips which were then sent away for making syrup. I believe it was part of some national scheme to give to children as a vitamin C supplement because of the restricted diet. I seem to remember we were still given Delrosa rose-hip syrup when I was small. -- Sue |
