Ingredients

  • 1-2 packages of fresh Rosemary Sprigs, Trimmed
  • 120ml Water
  • 400g castor sugar,

Method

In a medium saucepan, combine water and 1/2 cup sugar, stirring over medium heat until sugar dissolves.

Do not boil. Remove from heat and stir in rosemary sprigs, one or two at a time until coated.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer rosemary sprigs onto parchment paper or a wire rack.

Dry for an hour. Working a few sprigs at a time, roll the rosemary into the remaining sugar until well coated. If rolling proves challenging, sprinkle sugar over rosemary sprigs until covered.

Place sugared sprigs on a new sheet of parchment. Or hang from a piece of twine like washing dry completely- at least an hour- before using
