Candied Orange Peel

Prepared these candied orange peels for my panettone bread - not very sweet, just the way I like them 😍

Yield: about 50g candied orange peel + 30g orange syrup

Ingredients
50g orange peel
200g water for blanching

100g water for preparing the syrup
40g raw sugar

Directions
1. Wash an orange with Vegetable & Fruit wash before peeling the skin with a peeler.

2. Blanch the orange peel in 200g of hot water for about 5 minutes to remove the bitter taste. Drain away the water.

3. Pour 100g of water,

and 40g raw sugar to cook with the orange peels.

Bring to a boil, and simmer for about 30 minutes with lid on. Stir occasionally

Remove the lid, turn up the heat slightly, stir to dry the syrup faster for about 5 to 10 minutes.

Let the content cool down.

4. Transfer to a clean container and store in fridge till needed 😊
