Drying Flowers

  There are a number of simple drying techniques to choose from. The trick is to choose the right technique to suit your flowers. Here are five of the most common methods… 1.

Orange Blossom Water Recipe

  Make Your Own Orange Flower Water The Traditional Way to Make It The traditional method of making pure orange flower water requires steam distillation in special copper equipment known as a still or  katara  in Moroccan Arabic.
