the easiest way to preserve plant essence is to make a jam. There are many possible recipes but it is always interesting to experiment a bit. This is one of my favorite.

=== Strawberry rose petal jam===

== Ingredients ==

  * 500g fresh strawberries
  * a handful of fresh rose petals (any rose petals are good, but make sure they are not sprayed or growing too close to the road)
  * 400g sugar
  * 1 bag agar agar
  * 1 glass of water

== Method ==

  - place strawberries, rose petals and water in a big pot
  - let them simmer on low temperature till strawberries are pale pink and soft
  - sieve it well
  - pour the juice back into the pot, add sugar and let it cook for a while till it becomes slightly thick
  - add agar-agar powder, mixing it well
  - pour the mixture into the prepared jars
  - enjoy
