Recipe Review
Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT
I have childhood memories of my older sister making candied citrus peel; to rekindle these memories I gave this recipe a go.
Two steps of boiling the peel had me really worried - I seemed to be pouring off so much wonderful aroma. But have no fear, the final product is awesome.
I let my candied peel sit for 2 days before applying chocolate. I liked the orange peel taste so much, I only wanted a kiss of chocolate. So instead of immersion, I applied the chocolate to only one side. Result: the perfect orange and chocolate stoichiometry.
My only regret was that I wasn't careful about which side of the peel to dip. It would have been prettier had I dipped the pith side of the peel (instead of random).
