Some
recipes
**Elderberry Blossom
Wine
Yield: 1 Servings
1 gallon Boiling water
1 qt Elder blossoms
3 lb Sugar
1 Lemon; thinly sliced
1 pack yeast
Put blossoms in a large kettle and
pour water over them. Let stand 1
hour. Strain, add sugar to liquid,
boil a little and skim. When
lukewarm, add lemon and yeast. Let
stand 24 hours, then strain and put
into bottles or jugs, filling full
until all impurities are worked
out. Be sure to fill up jugs as
fast as it works out and the wine
will be
a beautiful amber color. (In making
this wine, be careful to keep all
stems out, as they make the wine
taste rank and give it a dark
color). Cork tightly.
Pick perfectly formed violets
first thing in the morning,
after the dew has dried. Using
a clean artist's paintbrush,
carefully paint them with
lightly beaten egg white. While
still wet, dip them in
extra-fine sugar. Dry in a very
slow oven or food dehydrator
until crisp. This can take up to
24 hours depending on humidity.
Use immediately, or gently
remove and store them in an
airtight container.
This method also works well for
violas and other small flowers.
