Rose Water
By SS on Nov 18, 2009 in Facial Skin Beauty
Rose water is known for its toning properties and is one of the best-known potions for the face. This recipe is a traditional way to prepare rose water. Be sure you have a brick and a heat-safe stainless steel pot. Take 2-3 quarts of fresh roses or rose petals, water, ice cubes or crushed ice. Put the roses in the pot. Pour in just enough water to cover the roses. Place the lid upside down on the pot. Turn on the stove and brig the water to a boil, then lower heat to a slow steady simmer. As soon as the water begins to boil, toss 2 or 3 trays of ice cubes (or a bag of ice) on top of the lid. You’ve now created a home still ! As the water boils the steam rises, hits the top of the cold lid, and condenses. Its time to stop when you have between a pi t and a quart of water that smells and tastes strongly of roses.
