Citrus Greats Directions
- Wash the fruit and score the peel into quarters.
- Remove sections of peel with fingers; cut into uniform strips about 1/2 inch wide.
- Boil the peel with 6 cups cold water, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse.
- Repeat the process with 6 cups fresh water.
- In a large saucepan, combine 3 cups sugar, honey, and boiling water. Bring to a boil, and boil about one minute.
- Add cooked, drained peel and briskly simmer until almost all of the syrup has been absorbed, about 30 minutes to avoid sticking.
- Transfer peel to colander. Drain well, about 10 minutes.
- In large bowl, toss drained peel with remaining sugar to coat well.
- Spread pieces out on waxed paper to dry.
- Store in tightly covered container.
