C'est au printemps que vous cueillerez le romarin: de Mai à Juin, suivant les régions. Vous conserverez son arôme grâce à ce Sirop de Romarin. Plus tard, vous le boirez, dilué dans un verre d'eau, tout simplement. Et puis ferez de bons desserts parfumés au romarin. |

For 75 cl syrup:
|
- Pick the youngest stalks, even better if they carry flowers, and rinse.
- Set the water to boil in the pan. When it has reached boiling point add the rosemary and stir.
When it has come back to the boil, turn off the heat and cover. Leave to infuse for 15 minutes. - Filter through a fine sieve, then pour back into the pan.
- Add the sugar. When it has melted, boil the syrup for 15-20 minutes. It will reduce and thicken. You should normally have 70-75cl of liquid left.
- Pour into a sterilised bottle and stopper.
Store in a cool place.
A Rosemary cordial – put 2 tsp syrup in a glass and top up with water. Mix well.
Peach fruit salad with rosemary – peel 4 peaches, cut into chunks and place in a large bowl. Add 4 tsp syrup and mix. Serve chilled.
On its own, as a glaze, poured over ice-cream or even cheese.
