TN: thank you! it is similar in taste to cranberries and will probably be a great substitute during thanksgiving dinner. i'm thinking of trying it with orange juice or orange zest and make jam. manang: that's what i thought , too. i was under the impression that it is the gumamela that we know. (maybe gumamela is also edible but i have not researched that so i will not be picking flowers from my yard anytime soon!) . i have seen it in manila but not too many. they might have it under a different name but the one i found was called roselle. lisa: i am sure you can use the tea for flavoring. i have seen it used in cheesecake and muffins.

I don't think I ever encountered rosselle in the Philippines... now you have made me want to look this up the tea isle in the grocery store…

This is another creative one, although I don't much care for hibiscus in tea - its sourness is a little too overpowering. But I agree that this coulis would make a great counterbalance to a sweet dessert. I’ve really enjoyed your dried flowers posts!
