Go out and find these golden red gems - the Rose hips! Full with vitamin C and so delicious!
I pick both the wild roses hips Rosa dumalis ( Rosa Canina L.) and...
...the hips from Rosa rugosa.They are easy to pick it takes just a few minutes but it takes fairly long time to clean them and it is pretty boring but it is worth it.
A small and pretty frosen November Rose.
MY WILD ROSEHIPS MARMALADE1.5 litres wild rose hips
3 big red apples
5 dl liquid
1 kg (2,2 lb) sugar with pectin
Take 1.5 litres of thoroughly cleaned but unseeded wild rose hips, 3 chopped red unpeeled apples and 5 dl juice apple/orange/grapefruit or just water. Pour everything into a big saucepan, bring to boil and then simmer for 45 min. puree them using a sieve or other straining device to remove the seeds ,then add 1 kg of sugar (with pectin). Boil for additional 10 minutes. Pour the marmalade into clean jars.
1 litre = 1,75 U.K pints = 2,11 U.S pints
ROSE HIP BREAD WITH RAISINS, NUTS AND SEEDS
Juice of an orange plus water to make 1 cup
1/2 cup chopped raisins
3/4 cup wild rose hips, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 beaten egg
1-1/2 cups of flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup nuts or sunflower seeds
1 cup = 240 ml
Mix the orange juice, raisins, rose hips, butter, and egg in a large bowl. Sift together and then add the dry ingredients. Mix until well blended and then gently stir in nuts or sunflower seeds.
Spoon batter into a well greased loaf pan and bake at 175 degrees C. (350F) for one hour.
1/2 cup chopped raisins
3/4 cup wild rose hips, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 beaten egg
1-1/2 cups of flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup nuts or sunflower seeds
1 cup = 240 ml
Mix the orange juice, raisins, rose hips, butter, and egg in a large bowl. Sift together and then add the dry ingredients. Mix until well blended and then gently stir in nuts or sunflower seeds.

UPDATE!I made a new batch of Rose Hip Marmalade today and tried out something new. After I put the mash through the straining device I poured 2 pints of water over the remains of the hips and apples, stirred around and then strained it again. What I got now was an unsweetened Rose Hips and Apple juice. Added some lime and water, now I got myself a most lovely and guaranteed healthy drink.
Cheers and to all of you in US have a great Voting Day!

Tyra, those rose hips are enormous! Your marmalade looks wonderful.
My MIL makes tea from wild rose hips. She dries them and coarsely chops them. Per pint of water, she adds about 2 T. of dried hips. They must be boiled/simmered -- pouring boiling water over them results in a rather tasteless brew -- for roughly 10 minutes. She sweetens hers slightly with honey, and occasionally adds a mint leaf. It is very good. :)
Hi Tyra, I have never seen such hips! LOL Your recipe sounds delicious for both marmalade and bread. Yummy!

I can see you are very talented. Your blog is classy and I am going to stay a bit and look around. I want to see that greenhouse! Thanks for sharing the recipe. I didn't know that rose hips grew that large.
We just discovered the wonder of rose hips this fall. We have already tagged our neighbors roses and she promises to let the fruits ripen without cutting them back.
We've still to find a patch of wild roses to harvest from... we'll have to keep a better eye out next year. Can't wait to try the recipes!
Well thank you Anna you are more than welcome.
Shibaguys welcome and good luck with those hips.I'm looking forward to make some of yours peanut butter.

Hi Tyra - many thanks for visiting my blog :)
I had a lovely time in Stockholm 10 years ago when I worked on an environmental project around the city. We were there at the time of the Water Festival. I loved all the boat trips I went on to see all the islands too. A trip to Birka was particularly memorable, as was swimming in the Baltic every day :)
What a great post on rose hips! yes, the rosa rugosa has excellent hips. I am excited to see these recipes as we were wondering what else we could do.
I have ejoyed your blog!
Regards,
Philip
Vilka vackra nypon. Och nyponmarmelad visste jag inte ens att man kunde göra!
I am looking at the blogs I have found one way or another, and bookmarked. I enjoyed looking at photos in your other blogs, too. You have a beautiful place, and you take great pictures!
This post makes me want to try growing roses again.
VP - oh so you have visit my country, I glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Stockholm is a very beautiful and clean town with a lot of water as you noticed. Welcome back VP!
Welcome Philip to Tyras Garden and I so glad you liked the post of Rose hips. Do try to make the marmalad it is dead easy and wonderful on toasts.
Camelia - jag säjer som till Philip, du måste pröva den.
Welcome Sue and I am delighted to hear that you like my pictures. These Roses canina are Wild roses so you do not have to cut them back each year, isn't that good and you can harvest every fall:-)
I love wild rosehips marmelade, but would never think of making it by myself. In winter I always buy it in the (german)"Reformhaus". I don't know, if here is an english word to translate this.
Elke
elke - nice to hear from you and that you have rose hip marmelade in Germany. Have you tried it with cheese?

Dear clever Tyra ~ if only I could get my hands on those hips! Delightful recipes but with the few roses I have, I could barely make a 1/4 cup. Your fine photos resemble professional ads ...
Precis en sådan c-vitaminkick jag skulle behövt idag med min onda hals :) Jag har plockat nypon men de hade mask innuti så ingen nyposoppa fick jag.... :( Härlig bilder 8`)
Ciao Tyra
nice to read you. About Rose hips recipe I leave you a lovely post by a friend of mine.
