Quite by chance when I was out to lunch today I found a recipe, (in The Christchurcg Zest), for 'New Zealand Rose Petal Pate'.  It sounded divine, but sadly I was unable to try it. This is the recipe ...




Ingredients:
 
1 cup rose petals, dry and fragrant
Half cup grated cheese
Half cup cream cheese
Half cup double cream
Nutmeg
Pinch salt, pepper and sugar
Grated rind lemon
Grated rind orange
Juice one lemon
Juice one orange
Handful mixed herbs

Method:

Blitz all the ingredients together until desired smoothness/thickness
Add/subtract cream to taste


Serve with home-made shortbread.

Yummy!
