I had to substitute rose water for dried rose petals. I didn't have very much<br/>from our rose bush outside and the local stores were out of dried rose petals.<br/>We used this mixture on whole chicken and slow roasted for several hours. Served<br/>with basic Persian steamed rice and roasted vegetables. Yum! Reviewed for NA*ME tag November/December.
