.
Bring to the boil and then drain. Repeat 8 times.
Measure the peel and add equal amounts of water and sugar.
Boil
for 45 minutes on medium heat or until the peel is transparent. Watch that
it does not burn.
Strain the peel but be careful not to touch it with your hand because it is
BOILING!
Roll
in sugar to separate the pieces and leave to dry overnight on a cookie
sheet. Make sure all the pieces are separate.
Next
day or when they are very dry:
Melt
chocolate over a double boiler and dip the pieces of orange peel into the
chocolate. Place on a cookie sheet covered with tin foil. Let it stand until
the chocolate is solid or place in the fridge for a short while.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge until needed.
Can
be frozen but better to keep in fridge.
