Glad Glazed Orange Peel

Peel the oranges, removing the thin, white skin carefully

Cut the peels into fine strips

Place a good amount of water in a pot and let it boil

Add the peels and simmer for a bit

Drain

Repeat this process 3 times

In another pot, combine sugar, 1/2 cup of water, and the cooked peels

Cook until the mixture reaches a soft-ball stage

To test the consistency, place some of the syrup in a cold-water bath

If it forms a ball that doesn't hold its shape, it's ready

Remove from heat and stir well until the sugar starts to crystallize

Pour onto a greased surface and mix with 2 forks until the strips become loose and caramelized

Store in an airtight container

Serve with a cup of tea or coffee
