   Candied Orange Peel What are the ways to make it? Let me introduce them to you briefly. Candied orange peel is a delicious treat made from orange peel and lemon. This delicacy has two preparation methods. Let's take a look.

  Method 1: 1. Thoroughly wash the orange peel, remove as much of the white pith as possible, cut into small pieces, chop the orange flesh, and slice the lemon; 2. Put water and rock sugar in a pot, bring to a boil, then add the orange peel, orange flesh, and lemon slices. Boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer for about 1 hour; 3. Cook until there is no soup left, it becomes sticky, and the orange peel and lemon slices are translucent.

  Method 2: 1. Dry the oranges. Usually, when eating oranges, keep the peel and let it dry. First, soak it in cold water and wash it clean; 2. Put the orange peel in a pot, add enough water to cover the peel, add an appropriate amount of salt to taste. Don't add too much salt, and boil it with water; 3. Boil for five minutes, turn off the heat, and soak in water overnight; 4. Remove the orange peel, use a spoon to scrape off the white soft part of the inner layer of the peel, leaving only a layer of yellow peel; 5. Cut the peel into strips, put them in a container. When putting them in the container, put a layer of peel, a layer of white sugar, then another layer of peel, and so on. Cover the peel with a thick layer of white sugar, press it down, and refrigerate for four to five days. (In winter, if the temperature is below 10 degrees Celsius, you can leave it at room temperature; but if the temperature is high, put it in the refrigerator). The next day, you can observe that the sugar is slowly melting; after four days, the sugar has basically melted. 6. After marinating for four or five days, pour the sugar juice into a pot with a strainer, bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and slowly boil out the water. When the sugar juice becomes thick and transparent, you can store it in a jar. 7. Spread the cut peel strips with some syrup on a large flat plate and put it in the microwave to dehydrate. Three minutes each time, microwave two or three times, until the orange peel is basically dry and soft.

  Method 3: 1. Wash off the pesticide on the orange peel with salt, rinse with clean water, cut the orange into four sections, separate the flesh and peel, trim the corners of the orange peel, and then cut it into small pieces vertically with two knives; 2. Peel off the white flesh inside the orange peel with a small knife, put it in a pot of water, add a little salt, boil for 10 minutes, rinse twice, and then soak in water for 1 day; 3. Take out the soaked orange peel, rinse again, put it in a pot, add water, white sugar, and salt, bring to a boil, squeeze in lemon juice, cover the pot, simmer for about 30 minutes, wait until the sugar water is dry, the sugar juice is thick, then use a spatula to turn it over to prevent sticking to the pot. When the orange is covered with syrup and becomes transparent, turn off the heat; 4. Take out the orange peel, spread it out to cool completely, and coat both sides with a layer of white sugar before enjoying.
