MAKING CANDIED ORANGE

when I was looking at joe pastry blog, I came across this recipe,I found is quite useful when making
orange cake or cupcake. Normally all the recipe will tell you to use orange zest, just peeled the oranges
skin or grated the orange skin and add to the cake.My children after eating the orange cakes,they will complain  it taste a bit of bitter.I have a few oranges and follow the recipes,wow come out nice and taste very good  the orange syrup I put in an air tight container kept in the fridge. I use to add in when making fruits juice,very fragrant.I thought of using to substitute when recipe call for using honey.

MAKING CANDIED ORANGE (or any citrus peels )

3 navel oranges
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1/4 cup light corn syrup,glucose syrup or honey ( I used honey )

wash and dry the oranges,then cut off the very ends and scone them in quarters from top to bottom.Peel the rinds off the fruit,trimming away any excess pith,then cut into the rinds into 1/2 inches slices.

put the peels in a saucepan with water to cover.bring the water to the boil for two min.drainthe peels,cover them again with cold water,and boil for another 2 mins.Repeat the process a third time ( this will eliminate most of the pith's bitterness.)

Meanwhile,prepare the syrup.combine the sugar,cornsyrup,honey and water in a medium saucepan and bring it to the boil over high heat.add the peel,reduce to medium low and simmer until the peels are translucent and soft to bite.Remove the peels from the syrup and place them on a parchment-lined rack for rouhly three hours.once completely cooled they 're ready for use.To make candy out of them,lay them into a parchment-lined sheet pan covered with crystalline sugar while they're still hot.toss them in the sugar after 3 hours.

The orange syrup is a happy by-product of the process.strain it and reserve it for another use.
