Loose Leaf Kitchen: Nootka Rose Ice Cream for The Honey Moon


The Honey Moon brought with it two wild treats to the island.  As the new moon dawned at the end of May the first Nootka Rose buds unfurled into the first dry dusted days of a San Juan summer.  



Five heart shaped petals unfurl from each tiny bud and linger a few days before being taken by the wind, spring rain, or our grateful fingers.


Nootka Rose infused food is a five senses feast.  The feeling on one's finger tips as the petals are pulled free is impossibly soft.  Not only is the process simple it is relaxing (note: E.P. is sitting).
