Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Apples — Choose crisp and slightly tart varieties such as Fuji or Granny Smith for the best texture and flavor.
  • Rose water — Use a high-quality rose water to ensure a delicate and authentic floral taste.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra burst of flavor, sprinkle some crushed pistachios or almond slivers over the Kininaru Ringo Delight before serving.
  • If you prefer a more pronounced floral taste, you can increase the amount of rose water slightly.
  • To make the dish more visually appealing, use a variety of apple colors, such as red, green, and yellow.

Serving advice

Serve the Kininaru Ringo Delight chilled to enhance the refreshing qualities of the dish. The combination of the cool apples, sweet syrup, and creamy ice cream or whipped cream creates a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures.

Presentation advice

Arrange the apple slices in a circular pattern, starting from the outer edge and working your way towards the center. This will create a visually stunning flower-like shape. Drizzle the syrup gracefully over the apples, allowing it to cascade down the slices, adding an elegant touch to the presentation.
