As I read 's request about preparing rose hips my interest perked way up and I wonder if any responses could also be posted onlist? I had seen this topic mentioned about 6 months ago on another list; the poster was concerned that if Codex was passed and the USA followed suit, we would be unable to purchase Vit C, et al, in any kind of therapeutic amounts. He wondered about growing rose hips as a source of C, just in case. Unfortunately there was no follow up on that list, but the idea hasn't left my mind. I suspect that there is a recipe " somewhere " for making rosehip jam, but as mentioned, that would involve heat and would probably destroy most or all of the C. I'm hoping some of you creative nutritional cooks might have an idea! Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
