rose hips

(1/2) > >>

jturner:
When is the best time to harvest rose hips and what is the best way to use and store them?

Pat B:
After they turn red so now is OK. They are bitter so probably better to be steeped into a tea. Lots of Vit C in rose hips.

jamie:
once they are hit by a good frost the bitterness leaves and they are sweeter. dry them slowly and they will store for a long time. even dry they can be used in muffins but you have to remove the seeds. best used as a tea.

Tsalagi:
My wife made jam out them this year. Tart, but nice on toast with bacon and eggs!

jturner:
Thanks guys i know they have lots of vit c but most ive tried have no real taste
