ORANGE BLOSSOM WATER lends a delicate perfume to syrups, pastries and puddings. You may add a drop or two to water and Turkish coffee, a tablespoonful to a salad dressing or a stew. A teaspoon in a coffee cup of boiling water, with or without sugar, makes the soothing and digestive ‘white coffee’ of Lebanon. Only a diluted form of the strong distilled essence is obtainable in this country. It was used here a good deal as a flavouring centuries ago but in recent years has been sold as a toiletry article by chemists.
