Description
Unfortunately, I'm not caught alive nor grandmothers nor great-grandmothers. But the legacy of them has got unique antique "Cookbook of the experienced Russian housewife. A guide to reducing costs in the household", 1912 edition, 5th edition e, greatly enlarged. This book for me was a real discovery! I used to think that the kitchen of our ancestors did not differ much, and it turns out that almost any modern dish has a long history. At first reading it was quite difficult because of the Cyrillic alphabet old Church Slavonic (Yat er) and outdated measures of weight (pound, spool, etc.), but then got used and was fast enough to translate a modern twist. Number 1043 in this book is the "Pink cream" is a very unusual dessert of rose petals, even in the Internet did not find analogues. For the contest "Journey to ancient recipes".

The folio.
Very rare edition.
Well, let's try to repeat this old recipe and start with cooking the pink flour. Growers reluctant to part with the roses, I had a little poprosyat. :) How many of the buds was broken, I don't know for sure, but much less 50.
The flowers remove the cuttings and leaves podvyadshie. The petals already turned 54 grams!
Grind the petals in a blender — on this cooking technique our grandmothers and could not dream!
Also grind the almonds in a blender into fine crumbs. I took 29 grams is too much, enough and half.
Since petals I have not so much, I added only one egg yolk.
Flour kontaktnoi poured "by eye", was a 1.5-2 tbsp Here is a huge amount of dough comes out of the ingredients! Of the remaining protein can make meringue.
Further sculpt lepeshechki and coat them in ground almonds. The result — 7 pink almond lepeshechki.
Put them on greaseproof paper. Free spirit also had to adapt. Cakes should not bake and dry. My oven's minimum temperature is 150 degrees, with door ajar I was dried approximately 1 hour, and then left to cool off in the oven.
Lepeshechki dried.
Again we grind them in a blender. Flour turns out not pink, but very flavorful! A bit like coffee. :)
Hair sieves in my household was not sifted through the glass for flour,
Then poured in a tin can.
The proportions of milk, sugar and cinnamon in the recipe is not specified. The method of selection I got 100 ml of milk — 2 tsp sugar, pinch of cinnamon, 12 tsp pink flour. Milk heat over low heat, add sugar, cinnamon, flour and stir until thick.
