The recipe in the Miscellany calls for cooking Sekanjabin for 30 minutes and
(IIRR) Lemon Syrup for 20 minutes. The recipe I have for Rose Syrup has it
cooked for 10. The difference in just-reached-boiling and cooked-to-syrup
consistency is very noticeable. These syrups will usually be much thicker
(IME) than the commercially available ones.
