Title: Candied Lemon Peel
Categories: Citrus, Chocolate
Yield: 1 Pound
8 lg Lemons
2 c Sugar
2 c Water
1 1/2 c Superfine sugar
1 1/2 c Semisweet chocolate chips
2 tb Shortening
With a sharp knife, score each lemon, cutting peel into
four wedge-shaped sections. Loosen and remove peel with
a spoon (save fruit for another use).
Place peel in a large heavy saucepan and cover with cold
water.
Bring to a boil. Cover and cook for 30 minutes. Drain
and repeat. Cool for 5 minutes. Carefully scrape off
excess pulp from peel. Cut the peel into 1/4" strips.
In another saucepan, combine sugar and water; cook and
stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Add
lemon strips. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat; simmer,
uncovered, for 50-60 minutes or until peels are
transparent, stirring occasionally.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer strips to wire racks
placed over a baking pan. Let stand for 1 hour. Sprinkle
superfine sugar into an ungreased 15" X 10" X 1" pan.
Sprinkle strips over sugar; toss to coat. Let stand for
8 hours or overnight, tossing occasionally.
In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening;
stir until smooth. Dip one end of each strip into
chocolate mixture; place on waxed paper until set. Store
in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
