To preserve red Roses whole after Mrs. Goodrouse manner which hee calleth Conserve of red Roses whole.

TAke red Rose leaves or buds with the white part being cut off, one pound, boil them in a quart of Conduit water until they be somwhat tender, which will be by that time all the wa∣ter is almost consumed, then take them off the fire and set them by, until you have made your syrrup; Then for every pound of Roses you must take three pound of Sugar, beat it into pouder and dissolve it with a little Conduit water, and when it is well dissolved and beginneth to boil, put into it your Rose leaves, together with the water wherin they were boiled, if there remain any, which must be very little, and then let them boil in their syrrup until that all the syrrup be almost wasted, and that it be∣cometh like a Conserve, then take it off the fire, and when it is cold, add to it the juice of two or three Lemonds, which will make it have a most orient colour, surpassing all that ever you saw, then put it in a gally pot or glass.

Your Roses must be but half beaten, then have your syrrup made and boyled to a full height, and then mix them together and put them up in your pots.
