Rose with Liz Knight + Sweet Rose Dukkah Recipe

What a treat you have in store with today’s episode about the lovely (and, as you’ll see, very yummy!) rose plant. The best teachers breathe love and life into what they’re teaching. And my guest today, Liz Knight, is no exception! She reminds me of a little fairy, with her sparkly smile and deep rooted love of the green world.I know you’re going to love Liz, the bits of culinary and life wisdom she sprinkled like flower petals throughout our conversation, and last but not least, her wonderful recipe for Sweet Rose Dukkah. (There’s a free, downloadable and printable recipe card available just for you.) By the end of this episode, you’ll know:► Twelve hints for working with roses in food and drink► A surprising way to enhance the taste of olive oil► A secret for preserving the flavor of dried rose petals► A to-die-for floral threesome (whether you infuse them into food or just breathe in their scents on a warm morning)► Three tips for working safely with flowers in food► and so much more…For those of you who don’t already know her, Liz Knight is a teacher and author from the borders of England and Wales. As a child, she loved gardening and cooking and when she bought a second hand wildflower ID book, complete with hand written notes courtesy of its previous owner about how to eat the plants, her life was sent on a different, more delicious path. In 2021, after 10 years of teaching foraging and running an acclaimed wild food business, her first book about edible wild plants, Forage, was published to global acclaim, selling out in weeks. If you’d like to hear more from Liz, which I highly recommend, then head to the show notes where you can get easy links for her website and social media channels.
