Comment préparer Rays Of Sunshine Homemade Candied Orange Peel

Scrub 2-3 large oranges thoroughly under cold running water.
Using a sharp knife, remove the peel and pith from the oranges in large pieces (about 1/4 of the orange).
Place the orange peel pieces in a medium-sized saucepan (about 2-quart).
Cover the peel completely with cold water.
Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
Drain the peel thoroughly.
Repeat steps 4-7 two more times (for a total of three boilings). The pith should become translucent. If not, repeat once more.
Drain the peel completely and slice it into 3mm thick strips, or leave in attractive quarter pieces.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine 2 cups granulated sugar and 1 cup water.
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add the prepared orange peel to the sugar syrup.
Simmer gently for 45-60 minutes, or until the syrup has almost completely evaporated and the peel is translucent, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the peel from the syrup and place it on a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cover the peel loosely and allow it to dry overnight.
The next day, toss the peel in 1/2 cup of caster sugar to coat lightly.
Arrange the sugar-coated peel in a single layer on fresh parchment paper and allow it to dry completely for 2-3 days, or until the surface is no longer sticky.
Store the candied peel in airtight containers in a cool, dark, and dry place. It will keep for several months.
