Picking some rose hips

As I been writing about roses and rose hips before her on my blog, now it is time to pick them, and write about it. The red berries are full of vitamins and lot of other good stuff.

The once so beautiful wild roses have now become Rose hips, and they are so good to use for a soup, we call it Nyponsoppa.

I cook the berries in some water until they become really soft and mushy. Then I sieves the hips and use what is left. I add some sugar and more water with what is left and cook it some more, I add some potato flour to get a thicker soup. You could serve it cold or hot.

Se the roses here in an earlier blogspot:

Wild roses

Love all wild flowers, especially if they are beautiful like these roses, Rosa Canina I think it is called in English.

In the autumn they give us some lovely fruits - Rose hip, not to eat directely but to cook and make a sweet soup of, we call it Nyponsoppa.
