Rosa carrot for the holiday table
To create roses we need:
- carrots,
- toothpicks
- sharp knife,
- utensils with water,
- a sprig of fresh mint or any other edible greens,
- a pinch of salt.
Getting to the creation of edible roses. Peeled carrots cut into very thin slices. Sliced carrots lightly sprinkle with salt, this will give them flexibility to form a bud. Bend slices in half, as shown in the photo below.
Getting to the creation of a rose. One slice folded in half is twisted into a cone and fix two toothpicks – to pierce it with the two sides get two perpendicular axes. Then take a petal (folded in half slice carrots) and put it on the two ends of the toothpicks.
We continue to build roses, landing on toothpicks remaining petals. Just need 5-6 slices.
Fully Assembled rose, cut the sticking toothpicks. Rose petals Bends and place it on a few minutes in a bowl with water.
We combine the rosettes with fresh sprig of mint.
