Directions
Candied Citrus Peel,For some romantic sweets on the go, go with candied citrus peel. We got our recipe from Kelleigh Love on the Run Trowbridge, former Delfina, Zuni and Le Colonial pastry chef and owner of the Ebbtide Caf.,YUM! I made orange peel, carefully carving off the pith so the pieces are quite thin, and crunchy. Outstanding!

Put 1 1/2 Cups of Sugar, 1 1/2 Cups of Water Into the Saucepan and 2 Tablespoons of Corn Syrup Into the Sauce Pan. Bring Saucepan to a Simmer on Medium Heat, Add Peel. If Youre not Using Corn Syrup, You Will Need to Put the Lid on the Pan to Simmer It For 6 Minutes Before Continuing. Let It Cook, Uncovered, at a Rolling Simmer Until It Is Done. For Hard-Ish Candy, Cook Until the Liquid Is Almost Gone, and For Chewy Candy Cook Until Only 3-5 Spoonfuls of Liquid Is Left. |

Store Candy in Airtight Containers. If You Store Them in the Fridge They Will Seem Very Hard- but Only Because They Are Cold! |
