Sun Dried Orange Peel - For Tagines, Daubes And Sweet Things!

1. 1

   Peel the oranges with a swivel head potato or vegetable peeler, or use a special zester.

2. 2

   Try to peel into long strips, and do not peel the bitter white pith, under the skin.

3. 3

   Lay the peel out onto a tray lined with greaseproof paper. Cover with an umbrella fly cover and place outside in direct sunshine.

4. 4

   Leave for about 6 hours; the peel will curl up and shrivel when it is totally dried - it should feel hard and crisp.

5. 5

   Store in an airtight container in a dark place for up to one year.

6. 6

   Use in cakes, scones, muffins, cookies, daubes, stews, curries, casseroles, marinades, sauces, sugars and all manner of things!
