How many drops of KDH Rose Water should I use in kheer, halwa, biryani, and sherbets?

KDH Rose Water is highly concentrated — always use sparingly. For kheer or halwa (serves 4): 1/2 to 1 teaspoon. For biryani (serves 4–6): 1–2 teaspoons sprinkled over the top before dum cooking. For one glass of sharbat or cold drink: 5–8 drops. Always add KDH Rose Water at the END of cooking desserts — adding during cooking evaporates the delicate aroma. Less is always more with rose water.

Can KDH Rose Water be used as a face toner or skin refresher — what is the correct method?

What is the difference between KDH Rose Water for cooking and cosmetic-grade rose water sold in beauty stores?

How should KDH Rose Water be stored and what is its shelf life after the bottle is opened?

Store KDH Rose Water in a cool, dark place away from sunlight and heat — natural aromatic compounds degrade with UV exposure. Keep the bottle tightly capped when not in use.

Can I use Gulab Jal directly on skin and hair without dilution?

When in cooking should I add Gulab Jal for best aroma retention?

For kheer, phirni, gulab jamun, and sherbets: add after the dish cools slightly (below 60°C). For biryanis: sprinkle over rice after the last dum before opening the lid. For drinks: add to glass just before serving, never to boiling water.

Is Gulab Jal safe for people with sensitive skin or floral allergies?

KDH floral waters are made by steam distillation of actual flowers — they contain the natural hydrosol, not synthetic fragrances. For people with known allergies to roses or flowers: do a patch test on the inner wrist before facial application. Most people with general sensitive skin find food-grade floral waters better tolerated than commercial perfumed skincare. If you experience redness or irritation, discontinue use. For internal (culinary) use, floral water allergies are extremely rare at food quantities.
