| Re: Rosehips
1. I would love to dry rose hips to use them for infusions through the year - but I can't figure out how to get rid of the hairs which I think are dangerous (and how many people used to call them 'itchibacks'?)
2. Ref rose hip syrup and other preparations which are reputed to be high in vitamin C, it sticks in my mind that vitamin C is destroyed by boiling. So are we fooling ourselves? I am supposed to be some sort of chemist but I have never found a definitive answer to this. Perhaps someone knows? |
