Auntie Mar'S Candied Citrus Peel

1. 1

   Place peel in pot; cover with several cups water and bring to boil. Drain well. Repeat until peel is no longer bitter, 2-6 times.

2. 2

   Make syrup: combine sugar and water in pot, bring to a boil and simmer until sugar is dissolved.

3. 3

   Add peel. Bring to boil and cook, stirring, until all syrup is absorbed and peel is transparent. Watch carefully so it doesn't burn.

4. 4

   Turn peel into a large bowl. Cover with more granulated sugar and toss until all sides of peels are coated.

5. 5

   Spread out on one layer on racks to dry, making sure air can circulate around each piece. This can take a few hours, or can be left overnight.

6. 6

   Store between layers of parchment in airtight containers.
