Candied Orange Peel What are the tips for making it? Let's have a simple understanding.

　　1. Orange peel contains orange oil, which has a slightly bitter and numbing taste. Soaking the orange peel in water overnight can reduce the bitterness and numbness. If you feel uncomfortable peeling the white pith, you can boil it in water first, then it will be easy to scrape off; 2. You can use navel oranges or ice sugar oranges; 3. This method can also be used to make candied grapefruit peel, tangerine peel, and lemon peel. However, tangerine peel is softer and easier to cook, so be sure to shorten the cooking time; 4. After the candied orange peel is coated with sugar, place it in a cool and ventilated place to air dry for two or three days. After it completely hardens, the bitterness and numbness will almost disappear, and the taste will be better. It can be stored in a sealed jar for half a year or even longer; 5. If you are not in a hurry to eat it after coating it with sugar, air drying it for a few days will make it harder and taste better; 6. Thoroughly dried orange peel is chewier, and the previous slight bitterness and numbness are almost gone, leaving only the sweetness of the sugar and the aroma of the orange peel; 7. After air drying, it can be stored in a sealed jar for half a year or even longer.

　　What are the wonderful uses of candied orange peel?

　　1. Cleaning the kitchen: After eating oranges, keep the peels. Add water to a pot, put the orange peels in the pot, turn on the heat, and bring the water to a boil. After the water boils, pour it into a container and filter out the orange peels. Then add some baking soda to the water, stir well, and put it in a spray bottle. The range hood and stovetop in the kitchen are often greasy and difficult to clean. Orange peels contain natural organic solvents that can break down grease, and baking soda also has a good cleaning effect. Spraying it on and cleaning the grease is very effective, better than washing.

　　2. Candied orange peel snacks: Boil the orange peel several times, washing it with cold water each time to remove the bitterness; cut the cooked orange peel into your favorite thickness and boil it in sugar water; let the cooked orange peel air dry, then sprinkle some fine granulated sugar on the surface, and it's done! The finished candied peel is great as a snack. If you can't finish it, put it in a sealed jar to prevent moisture, drying, or spoilage.

　　3. Dry or bake the orange peel. Light the dry orange peel and place it in the room to freshen the air and repel insects; dry the orange peel and put it in the stew while stewing meat to remove the fishy smell and add the aroma of orange peel; after washing the orange peel, use it to repeatedly wipe your teeth, maintaining it daily like brushing your teeth, which can slowly whiten your teeth.
