Steps:
- Very carefully pluck the individual edible petals from the rose bloom.
- Gently wash the rose petals, trying not to bruise them. Place the petals on kitchen towels or paper towels and let them be until they're completely dry. You may wish to dab the petals with a clean, dry towel to ensure they're completely dry.
- Place a wire cooling rack on a baking sheet. Crack the egg white into a small bowl and whisk it with a fork. Dump the superfine sugar into a shallow bowl or onto a plate.
- Gently paint a rose petal with the egg white using a new soft bristle paintbrush or instead simply dip the petal in the egg white, turning to coat both sides and allowing any extra to drop off, and then place the petal in the bowl of superfine sugar, turning to coat both sides and sprinkling on extra, if necessary, so the petals are completely coated with sugar.
- Space the candied rose petals apart on a wire cooling rack and leave until dry and hardened.
- Use the candied rose petals the same day as they'll become soft and wet if left too long (even if stored in a sealed container).
