recipe for candied orange peel, sugar, honey, navel orange peels, salt, water, chocolate (optional), superfine sugar (optional), turn this recipe into a puzzle, carefully remove the peel from the oranges (or other citrus fruit.) place the peel in water to cover. bring to a boil and simmer for about 30 minutes. some varieties of oranges or grapefruit have a bitter tang to the peel. this bitterness can be removed by repeating the simmering step two or three times. each simmering in fresh water leaches out the bitter taste. navel oranges do not have this problem so they do not need the repeated boilings., drain and cool the peel. cut the peel into thin strips between 1/8 and 1/4 thick. mix the sugar, honey and water. drop the peel in and simmer for 20 minutes, until the syrup is clear. cool it in the syrup. let it sit for a few hours until the syrup is slightly absorbed into the peel. warm, drain and spread in waxed paper until dry. roll in superfine granulated sugar., candied orange peel, ground almonds, superfine sugar, plain white or italian type 00 flour, milk, dark chocolate
