I have a "National Culinary Review" article which describes this process very
effectively. Although, in the article the chefs use an alcohol base, into
which they place the aromatics, and then very slowly raise the temperature to
draw off the flavored or scented vapors, which then collect on the plastic
wrap, and drip into the cup. I will try this to make rose water, as Brandu
describes, but may need a few suggestions as to which roses to use.
