Home-made organic gluten-free raw milk ice cream and ratafia biscuits inspired by the Victorian recipes from Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management 1861. Freshly picked rose petals from our organic garden - an ancient rose collection we have been building up over the years, many from cuttings. Music from Ail Fionn, their original composition "Breakfast in Kildare" available from the Public Domain Internet Archive at: archive.org Ice Cream Recipe: All Organic Ingredients 2 litre raw milk infused with 1 split Bourbon vanilla pod 1 dozen eggs 12oz/350g cane sugar 600ml crème fraïche 4 heads of richly perfumed roses - remove the small white section from the bottom of each petal. Bring milk to below boiling and leave to infuse with vanilla pod over night. (If you do not want to eat the petals just infuse them with the vanilla and then remove.)

Thanks! I think so, I was lucky enough to get four Austins from the sale corner at Bridgemere Nurseries in the UK and I moved them so many times I lost the labels! I also have Othello, The Alchemist, Bredon, Abraham Darby and a couple of Austins from David Austin. The rest are a old roses, some self-seeded? and many cuttings and we have roses in March to the frost but now is the best. You could plant a rose in the Hoop House, then you could have ice-cream, rose-hip syrup and beautiful flowers!
