If you have grown angelica now is the time to preserve it!

I'd have to hunt for a formal recipe but basically cut and wash some fairly tende stems and cook in sugar syrup. You cook for a while then allow the pieces to cool and absorb the syrup, and repeat - always using the same syrup, which becomes more and more concentrated so you end up with crystallised angelica.

I suspect there should be some green food colouring in there somewhere....

Lovely for decorating cakes
