- Preparation: 60 min
- Cooking: 45 min
- Makes: 1 serving (43 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegan, Dairy-free, Gluten-free, Low carb
Ingredients
- 20 g Rose hips, fresh (cleaned and seeded)
- 10 g Water
- 12 g Sugar
- 1 g Lemon juice
Method
- Pick ripe, deep red rose hips after the first frost, when they have softened a little. Wearing gloves, cut off the stalks and the dark blossom ends.
- Halve the hips, scrape out the seeds and the fine, itchy hairs with the tip of a teaspoon, and rinse them well in a sieve.
- Put them in a pot with the water, cover and simmer over low heat for 30-40 minutes, stirring now and then and adding a little water if they catch, until very soft.
- Press the hips through a fine sieve or food mill to remove any skins and hairs that are left.
- Return the purée to the pot with the sugar and lemon juice and cook, stirring all the time, for 5-10 minutes until thick; it spits, so use a long spoon.
- Fill into hot, clean jars, close them at once and leave to cool. Spread it on bread or Zopf, or use it to fill Linzer biscuits.
