  • 1/4 cup water

Directions:

  1. Candied Orange Peel (may substitue w/ store-bought).

  3. Usually, this is about 45 minutes for me.
  4. Drain and rinse with cold water, and scrape away the white membrane.
  5. I use a large spoon, be sure not to get any of the orange part.
  6. Once complete, chop the rind into small strips, approx 1/2 long.
  7. Bring the 1/4 cup water and 1 cup sugar to a boil, and add the chopped rinds.
  8. Be careful not to overcook- 25 minutes usually works for me.
  9. You want them to be in between soft& hard.
  10. Once finished, you can store in a jar or use right away to make the bread.
  11. Orange Nut Bread.
  12. Preheat oven to 350°F.
