While the birds are roasting, remove the petals from the roses and rinse thoroughly (do not cook with flowers from a florist!). Set aside the petals of two roses, and grind the remaining petals in a mortar with the anise.
Separately, mince the garlic and brown slightly in butter over medium heat. When transparent, add the chestnut puree. Lower heat, and add the honey, ground cactus fruit, and the ground rose petals. Salt to taste. Add cornstarch, to thicken the sauce slightly. Strain the sauce through a fine sieve, and add no more than two drops of rose water. Once all seasoning has been added to the sauce remove it from the heat.
Remove hens from oven, and lightly marinate the hen in the sauce for ten minutes to flavor, and return them to the roasting pan. Increase the oven temperature to 500° and roast the hen five to ten minutes more until golden brown.
Serve hen with sauce drizzled on top and garnished with the reserved rose petals.

How do you get rid of rose petal stains on a shirt?
I have a pink shirt stained from the rose petals during a wedding reception. Tried cleaning them off, but not able to do so. Please help
How do you get rid of rose petal stains on a shirt?
Rose Petal stains are very difficult to remove. A lot of churches will not allow fresh roses to be used, so freeze dried or silk roses are used in thier place.
For your stain I would take it to your dry cleaner and hope for the best.

Has The Body Shop discontinued their Lotus Petal fragrance?
I can't find it online, but their stores are far away from me, so I can't pop in and check. I adore their Lotus Petal fragrance and if it is discontinued, is it being reformulated and brought back? Or are there any last bastions of it I can find online somewhere? If not, any recommendations for what smells similar (besides Momoberry, which is spot-on but triple the price) Thank you for your help!

How can I remove rose petal (natural/fresh/red) stains from a white bath?
The bath water drained away overnight and the petals sat in contact. A browny/blue stain has been left behind.
How can I remove rose petal (natural/fresh/red) stains from a white bath?
Try the magic eraser.
Reply:if the bleach doesn't work....try peroxide
Ne Blessed!
Reply:Bleach that stays on the stain longer would help like in the product Tilex. A few applications will be necessary.If this is not feasible make a paste of Comet cleanser with bleach and apply, let dry and scrub away. 2-3 applications may be needed.Since the stains are organic, they will be easy to remove. Beware of the Magic Eraser, the product is just a dense piece of foam and falls apart very easily. Good luck and have a shinier tub.
Reply:Use chlorine bleach and water, about half and half and make sure that the water can't 'drain away' (you may need to put some plastic over the 'plug' to make sure) while the bleach has time to work. Do it in the early morning, and check it several times during the day. The 'stain' is from 'rot' of the petals and it may actually take a few 'days' of soaking your tub to get it 'white' again.

maybe if you or any body has sprayed poison on the ground
Reply:Rose petals are high in vitamin E. They are actually good for us and them as long as you don't use any pesticide or herbicide on them!

How can I crochet a 5 petal flower into a granny square?
I made a few lotus flowers with 5 petals and would like to make them into a border for a purse I am making and I'm trying to figure out how to strand them together into the purse. Should I make it into a granny square or is there another way I can strand them together?
How can I crochet a 5 petal flower into a granny square?
Here are a few patterns. You can crochet your rose and add a chain row after words connected in the center of each rose.
After you have that row then work your square by chaning three and working two dc.ch 2.then work 3 cd in first connecting chain loop, then work 3 dc, ch 2, 3 cd, ch 1 in the rest of the loops.
This will give you a five sided square but you can sew or slip them together and they will create a very pretty and uique aphgan. You just stager the end. Give it a try with a few squares and see what ya think.
Happy Stitching
Reply:I checked several sites and the most of them show the flowers being sewn on top of the granny square. You can do it that way or sew a couple of the petals together and then fasten them to the purse.

How do I make Gulkand or Rose petal jam?
Can I just take petals of the roses in my garden to make it or do I need to use petals of some special type of roses? I have pink, yellow, orange and red petaled roses in my garden. Can I use any or all of these for making the jam? Thanks!
How do I make Gulkand or Rose petal jam?
I've eaten but not made this -- here's a recipe I picked up
Gulkand/ Rose Petal Jam
Ingredients
1 kg fresh red and pink fragrant rose petals, washed and drained
[ Wild roses, are best, beacuse they have essential oils in them whereas cultured roses lack this quality. Best if the roses are grown organically, super fresh picked in the morning and clean, without dust, insects etc. ]
1 kg sugar
2 tspns cardamom seeds crushed
2 tspns fennel aniseeds
Few drops rose essence
Method
In a ceramic or glass bowl crush rose petals into the sugar by folding with wooden spooon -- OR,--- layer alternately rose petals and sugar directly into wide glass jar. If using the bowl-crushing method, add all the remaining ingredients and spoon into a large mouthed glass jar with tight lid. Leave in the sun everyday with lid closed, and stir with clean, dry wooden spoon every other day or so. The sun and sugar will draw out the moisture from the petals and make it syrupy.
Bring it in when the sun goes. Do this for a week-ten days and then leave the jar indoors on shelf, stir once in while, till you see it has turned dark and acquired a jam like consistency. takes another two plus weeks. Now it's ready. Store in a cool place. Will keep for year or two. Not refrigerated in India.
This is an Ayurvedic remedy as well, in addition to being used in paan. Considered cooling, a stomach settler, and a digestiive aid. It is an antioxidant, a tonic, a mild laxative, and good for memory and eyesight.

Reply:Use only pink rose petals which we use in garlands......wash the rose petals in cold water genlt(like keeping in water for 2 mins and rinsing it). the ice cold water should be drinking water..... next put these petals in a glass jar and add about 200 gms of sugar for a glass filled jar of rose petals(jar=500gm jar) keep it in room temprature for few days and u'll notice that the color would change to brown.. after the colours start to change mix the contents of the jar with a spoon till the sugar in it gets mixed well. again leave it for few days and ur gulkand is ready... it's a process of about 4-6 weeks.... indian summer is the best season to prepare it.
