Candied Peel For Jenn

You will need:

-Peels of 2 large grapefruits or 3 large oranges
-Water
3 cups sugar

Cover peel with cold water. Bring to boil and cook until tender pouring off and adding fresh a few times. Drain. With a spoon, scrape out the white part of the peel. Cut with a sharp knife or scissors into strips. Make a syrup by heating 2 cups sugar with 1 cup water. Add peel and cook over low heat until peel has a clear,candied look. Remove peel, a few strips at a time and roll in granulated sugar. Cool on rack.

If you have leftovers, dip some in bittersweet chocolate.
