Candied Lemon and Orange Peel
Lemon and orange peel if saved can be put to excellent use.
Take out the
greater portion of the white inside; throw the rinds into boiling water
and simmer gently for twenty minutes.
Drain, weigh, and take a pound of
sugar to every pound of peel.
Put a layer of sugar and a layer of fruit
into the preserving kettle; stand it over a slow fire until the sugar
melts. When melted, cook slowly until the rinds are transparent.
Lift
them out; drain them and when nearly dry roll in granulated sugar.
