Best Rose water for home cooking
What Rose water is for, which kitchens use it, and where to find a jar worth cooking with.
Why cooks start here
Distilled petals for baklava, sheer khurma, and a Moroccan milk pudding.
In Turkish cooking, Rose water is not decoration. Add it where the recipe puts it: early if it needs fat and time, late if it is perfume.
Taste Rose water before you empty the spoon. Fresh jars smell like themselves; tired ones smell like dust. Buy the smallest amount you will finish.
