Description

Dried rose petals are the delicate and aromatic dehydrated fragments of rose flowers, widely used in cooking to provide a floral aroma and a special aesthetic touch to various preparations. These petals, carefully harvested and dried to preserve their fragrance and color, are used in infusions, desserts, salads, teas, and also as edible decoration.

The origin of dried rose petals dates back to various cultures, especially in regions such as the Middle East, India, and the Mediterranean basin, where roses have been valued for both their culinary and medicinal properties for centuries.

Among their properties, their high content of antioxidants and phenolic compounds, which help combat cellular aging, stand out. Additionally, they have a slight sweet and floral flavor that can complement both sweet and savory dishes. They are also attributed digestive and anti-inflammatory properties.

In different Latin American countries, dried rose petals may be known by different names such as dried rose flowers, dehydrated roses, or simply dried roses. Regardless of the term, their use in cooking provides a special touch in both flavor and presentation.
