Organic Rose Water - Eau de Rose

Rose water is obtained by hydrodistillation of the fresh flowers of Damascena and Centifolia roses. In this way, the water is naturally combined with the aromas and fragrances of the flower. Depending on the flowers used and the distillation process, the water is more or less fragrant. It is therefore difficult to give exact quantities in the recipes.

A word of advice: put in little, taste and repeat until you like it!

In the Middle East, rose water is a very popular spice that subtly flavors creams, ice creams and oriental recipes. You can also drizzle the water on pancakes or in the milk of cakes, puddings and panna cotta.

Our recommendation is clearly to add the rose water to the tirggel dough. Since the beginning of the production of the Tirggel, the rose water is a traditional ingredient. A few drops are enough to give the dough a rosy note.

For a fresh lassi, you choose a stirred yogurt, add a few drops of the floral water and some sugar and put it in the bowl of the blender together with ice cubes. In the time of the Caliphs, this natural rose floral water was the symbol of the fragrances of the Orient, as delicate in smell as sweet in taste.

This organic rose petal water is best kept in a closed bottle, protected from light. Since it is not diluted, a few drops are enough to perfume your food.

Furthermore, rose water is also used for cosmetic treatments. The rose water contains no alcohol, no preservatives, has antibacterial effect and moisturizes the skin in a natural way.
