The Secret Ingredient: Homemade Candied Orange Peel

.(Knowing how to make this will level up all your dishes!)

What you need:- 3-4 orange peels (any citrus peel works)- 300g granulated sugar- 175g water

Here's how to make it:

1. Blanch the peels:
2. Rinse the orange peels, use both the pith (white part) and the peel.
3. Slice the peels into thin strips.
4. Place the peel strips in a large saucepan, cover with cold water, and set on high heat until it boils.
5. Drain the water and repeat this process two more times to remove bitterness.
6. Make the sugar syrup:
7. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and water.
8. Pour the sugar mixture into a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer.
9. Let it cook for 8-9 minutes at a constant simmer.
10. Candy the peels:
11. Add the blanched peel to the sugar syrup.
12. Cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the peels are translucent. Adjust heat as needed to maintain the simmer. Avoid stirring, swirl the pan occasionally to ensure all peels are coated.
13. Dry and store:
14. Drain any remaining syrup (use it in other recipes).
15. Allow the peels to dry on a rack for 4-5 hours or sprinkle with sugar while drying.
16. Store the candied peels in an airtight container for up to 3-4 months.

Back to our cranberry sauce:

• Mix the chopped candied orange peel, ground allspice, kosher salt, red pepper flakes, and cranberries with water and maple syrup in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Once the mixture comes to a boil, reduce heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thick and reduced, about 40 to 45 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Now store it, covered and refrigerated, for up to a week. Serve at room temperature with our Cheddar Biscuits or any other dishes that make your Thanksgiving table shine!
