Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Hibiscus Flowers Dried
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Prepare your dried hibiscus flowers and the equipment you will use for grinding. If you use fresh hibiscus, you can dry it at home by air-drying or oven-drying.
  • Transfer the dried flowers to your magic bullet blender or coffee grinder and prepare to grind. Pulse the blender until the dried petals turn into a fine powder. You can check the powder after pulsing a few times to see if it's okay with you, but if you want a finer powder, add a few more pulses.
  • Once you are good with the powdered hibiscus, gently open the lid and transfer your powder to any spice container. Enjoy it and start using it for your dishes.

Notes

  • Choosing flowers: Make sure to choose good quality and organic hibiscus for the best-powdered result.
  • Grinder: Since I only make small batches of powdered recipes, I only use a magic bullet blender, but you can use a coffee grinder, food processor, or any spice grinder you have at home.
  • Sweetener: Add some sweetener if you want your powdered hibiscus a little sweeter.
  • Edible flowers: You can do the same with other edible petals if you add more powdered spices to your pantry.
