Rosa mosqueta

Lo que deja la rosa cuando cae la flor. Cuélalo bien o los pelillos de la semilla dejan toda la tanda picando.

13 pairings for Rosa mosqueta.

Azúcar

classic

Syrup is the only preparation that survives the straining. Britain fed it to children by the spoon.

Manzana

classic

Both malic and floral; the apple gives it pectin and the hip gives it perfume.

Crema

common

Fat rounds a tart floral fruit that otherwise reads as a tisane, not a dessert.

The hip is more floral than sour; citric acid sharpens the fruit into focus.

Almendra

common

Benzaldehyde and rose are the same family of floral; flaked on top, it is a rose garden.

Hibisco

uncommon

Two tart florals; the hibiscus supplies the tannin the hip never manages alone.

Manzanilla

uncommon

Both apple-floral. Steeped together it is one tea, not a blend of two.

Venado

rare

A floral tart jelly against gamey iron; Scandinavia uses it where Britain uses redcurrant.

Enebro

rare

Resin and hedgerow floral; the hip carries the acid the berry has none of.

Cocoa butter takes floral acid beautifully and leaves only the rose behind.

Lactic chalk under a floral tartness; it reads as a fruit paste for a cheeseboard.

Labneh

wild

Both are lactic and faintly floral; the fruit acid pulls the curd to berry.
