Candied Rose Petals

Ingredients:

1 egg-white
3 tsp sugar
a bunch o rose petal

Method:
Begin by slightly beating one egg-white in a small bowl. Sprinkle a layer of sugar on a small plate. Dip the rose petals first in egg-white, then in sugar so they are coated on both sides.

Dry these confections on a rack. Store the candied petals on wax paper, each layer separated by a paper towel or piece of cheesecloth.

Use these on candy trays, as a garnish for fruit cups, as a decoration on cakes and pies or to adorn a serving plater for a special meal.
