Categories: Candy
     Yield: 6 servings

     3 c  Citrus peel; cut into strips
          -from:
     4 md Oranges; up to 5
     6 md Lemons
     2    Grapefruit
    12 c  Water; cold
 2 1/2 c  Sugar

 Wash fruit. Score peel into quarters. Remove sections of peel with
 fingers; cut into uniform strips about 3/8" wide. Boil peel with 6
 cups cold water, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse. Repeat
 process with 6 cups fresh water.

 In a large saucepan, combine 1-1/2 cups sugar, honey, and boiling
 water. Bring to a boil, and boil about one minute. Add cooked,
 drained peel and briskly simmer until almost all of the syrup has
 been absorbed, about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid
 sticking.

 Transfer peel to collander. Drain well, about 10 minutes. In large
 bowl, toss drained peel with remaining 1 cup sugar to coat well.
 Spread pieces out on waxed paper to dry. Store in tightly covered
 container.
