Magnificent fragrant roses are excellent for the production of pepper rose blossom salt.
In addition, the dried rose petals are mixed with pepper grains and coarse sea salt and finely ground.
An exciting experience for children: the observation and help from the flower harvest to the finished salt.
Try it out!
Children learn the economical use of salt as well as the appreciation of nature and the joy of the "self-made".
Remove fresh rose petals from insects / crawling animals and dirt. Remove unsightly leaves. Caution: use untreated roses!
For quick drying, the rose petals can be placed on a baking tray with grating. Dry for about 2 hours at 50 degrees hot air in the oven.
Without an oven, it takes several days.
The dry rose petals are now ready for further processing.
Attention: The leaves must be completely dry, otherwise the salt can mold!
Place about 100g of coarse sea salt with 1 teaspoon of colorful pepper and a handful of dried rose petals in the mixing pot and crush. Crucify in short units until the result meets your wishes.
The finished salt can now be used.
To keep or give away, I'd put it in a nice container.
I put the salt in an empty spice glass and labeled it with a label.
You can print the label for the salt or create one with the children yourself.
Cut out the label and attach it to the glass with a glue pin.
The rose salt is ready.
