Candied citrus peels

Well, thank you! I will use the recipe, very timely.

Something you don't want to read the whole Temko, and after the freezer also soak the crusts?

and after the freezer to soak the crusts?

Thank you too for the recipe. I did an accelerated version - I heated it twice a day. But the result is wonderful.

[Tanyusha]

Tanyusha, I am very glad to hear that the result pleased you !!!

Good health to you !!!

Good day to all!
I also made these candied fruits. Girls, why do I have them bitter? Soaked in water, as expected. During the day, the water was drained even more often than it is written in the recipe. And the remaining syrup is also bitter. The peels were mostly orange, with a bit of tangerine and grapefruit. It seems that I read everything and did everything correctly, but maybe I didn’t see a secret

You scared me

You scared me

And I will add. It just so happened. It happens.
They didn’t take root with me either. Harsh and bitter. And they don't prepare quickly.
I have been doing without them for a year and a half. Perhaps because the candied technology of watermelon peels and zucchini has taken root much better with me. From July to November I made only of them. The syrup of the local pair of cylinders is still waiting in the stash of the day. I spend it on ice cream on the sly.
Now I am mastering candied fruits from green radish. It's too early to tell. With aromatization, by the way, just orange peels.
Probably, I will not return to pure citrus peels soon.

You scared me

I myself do not understand why this bitterness did not go away, as the girls wrote here. But so that the children would eat instead of sweets, my, even adult children would not, because they are bitter. And the girls wrote that the syrup was delicious with pancakes and all that, but I have it bitter. So they dried up when they became so shiny, beautiful (I did not roll in sugar). In general, I'm at a loss

I was just going to do it, but now I don’t even know I don’t want to kill my time for something that will be a pity to throw it out later.

I don't know what the problem is ... I've already cooked it 3 times. Fly away with a bang. Grandchildren (2 and 3 years old) eat with pleasure instead of sweets, even if they are dry. This time I rolled them in powdered sugar, and before that I left them as they are. I add dumplings to lazy dumplings, chop finely, pumpkin carcass with them, add to sweet pilaf ... Now again, crusts are accumulating in the freezer. So that...

I don’t know how many of them I made, they never tasted bitter. True, mostly I have peels from oranges and tangerines, there were no grapefruit ... Maybe it tastes bitter from them?
Albina, do not be afraid, you will not throw it out! All are eaten!

fresh crusts need 1 kg, and if they are frozen, then heavier? or also 1 kg?

lemons are different - more or less sour, also with bitterness, grapefruit is a specific product. Try it with oranges first, just wash them thoroughly before cutting and peeling off the rind, then follow the technology ..

I also take 1 kg of frozen ones.

Thank you so much for the recipe! Everything turned out great! I never thought tangerine peels could be so delicious. We got more than half of them. All candied fruits are soft, not bitter droplets. Instead of sweets for tea and coffee, this is it! All the relatives are already frantically collecting the crusts in the freezers.

Hello girls! I'm sitting here a little ripening for candied fruits, and already "saving up" the crusts. And who did anything with Pamela? There are such crusts))) I put it in the freezer too, do you think it will roll?

I practically only do them.

Hello everyone :-) :-) :-) I went in well, I wanted to try candied fruits for a long time, thanks for the recipe, I took it to your favorites

[Kroshik,]

Kroshik, Innus, and 48 hours at what temperature the crust should be soaked, at room temperature or better in the refrigerator? I’m braking something today, I don’t remember how I did it last time.

It was at the room, Manyun ...

Thank you, Innus. I went to wet. Now I wrinkle these crusts like a fool of candy wrappers (my husband in the Ribbon has packed 35 re of oranges for juice), half of the box with them (crusts) in the freezer has already filled.

Krosh, thanks for the recipe!
Successful and very affordable!
Just in time for the New Year for all sorts of goodies!
And so it's not bad to gnaw.
.

Kroshik, thank you !!! I did it for a long time, I confess that I brought it late
It was delicious, it must be repeated And the pomelo is really the most delicious

[celfh]

celfh, I bought a pamelo today, you write pear-shaped bad, and which is good. And why is it bad, will it fit on crusts?

[Ksyusha]

Ksyusha, Svetulya, my dear girls, I am very glad that the recipe was useful to you !!!

Good health to you and your loved ones !!!

suitable for crusts?

Definitely ...

I remind you, pomelo crusts, they drink, in my opinion, just indecently much ... syrup ...

I do more for pamelo syrup ...

Uraaa !!!!! I managed!!! Thanks for the great recipe! Well, I didn't think that it would turn out something worthwhile from the "leftovers" that the toad strangles to throw out and the hamster helps her in this. All my previous attempts (with other recipes) have been disappointing. There is bitterness, but absolutely not disgusting, but so ... spicy. Well, like in essential oils. Isn't it bitter at all with you? I liked everything with a bitterness. THANK YOU!

[Girls]

Girls, a question for all candied fruit manufacturers) ...

Who processes citrus peels how, before putting them on candied fruits?

I'm all fruit and citrus fruits including, wash with a sponge, with dishwashing liquid, I use "Eared" ("Eared nanny") ......

Citrus fruits, especially if they need to be washed at once a lot, before washing, I stand for 20 minutes in a soda solution ...

And just the other day I read the following, the spelling of the author is preserved:

I think that not everyone knows this, BUT the zest of almost all the citrus fruits sold are NOT SUITABLE for consumption)
so it's worth making a purchase reservation for organic candied fruits.))
I have been to plantations where citruses grow. (and apples, pears, etc.) And I saw how trees are processed ... but this is not the whole procedure .. they are then processed before going abroad, that is, to our shops ... I have no right to name what this is all about. And the fact that you are still healthy is insignificant that from today to tomorrow it should be gone. Koneshno is that everyone should decide for himself what to eat. I personally choose even where this product comes from, without talking about the skin!

Not that I took it very personally, but ... but I thought about it ... I thought about it too ...

Where are all the collected skins from not bio-mandarinok put ...

It's kind of a pity in the bucket ...

What do you say, colleagues?

Now I do not cook candied fruits, because I am on a diet. And I throw out the crusts. And my grandmother in ancient times dried them and put them in cabinets.

[Anya]

because on a diet

I know, honey ...

Everyone is so happy for you !!!

You are soooo smart!

Anyahow long are you going to stick to sybarite?

Dear colleague Innochka Krosh! These horror stories are constantly being written. Everything is processed everywhere and it is not a secret. As our chemists advised me: rinse citrus fruits well just under the tap, then transfer to a bowl and pour boiling water over them, hold for 5 minutes and peel off the wax coating from the peel with the rough side of the sponge. I have been processing everything for a long time, while everyone is alive.
Everything has been processed from time immemorial. Even in one's own garden, everything is searched for from pests.
For export, the processing is much tougher, but life is generally harmful.
Of what was now coming in for the New Year, Abkhaz and Turkish tangerines were not processed and Abkhaz lemons.

[Anya]

Anyahow long are you going to stick to sybarite?

Yes, you know - I somehow got involved, now in a drive, that is, just within the framework of permitted products with self-regulation of the number of meals and time. True, now, in NG, something has blossomed But I will definitely return. It's a shame to lose what you have achieved. And as soon as you start to eat everything - write wasted. I now use baked goods (from chickpea puree), and processed cheese from low-fat cottage cheese. And finally I love Sybarit cocktail, I always take it for breakfast and dinner for a day. So for now, I have no exact answer to your question. I'm losing weight very slowly, so for now, somehow.

Likewise .. Just wash well with hot water and a brush and that's it ..

in another topic they discussed banana peel .. "Oh ... I don’t know, don’t know about bananas. I watched the program. So there they said that banana plantations are sprayed with chemicals, because the climate is hot and there are a lot of insects eating trees. So the workers factories where bananas are packaged work with gloves so that there is no contact of the skin of the hands with the chemicals that process bananas. " Seem to be?

It is impossible to live and shy away from everything that you see .. I think that the human body, in general, is a fairly stable system: it can cope with so little, if anything

I made candied fruits several times, everyone really likes it! Thanks for the recipe!

[notglass]

notglass, Iris, girls, thank you very much for your responsiveness !!!

it is good to rinse citrus fruits just under the tap, then transfer to a bowl and pour boiling water over it, hold for 5 minutes and peel off the wax coating from the peel with the rough side of the sponge.

Anya, I also heard about this method ...

Only I was still interested in a slightly different question ...

How to wash the skins already removed from the fruit)?

My homemade, never wash citrus fruits before peeling ...

Pavlena, Helen, very delicious candied fruits !!!

Good health to you and your loved ones !!!

[Kroshik]

Kroshik, I think the same as I said. Although it is a little more difficult, rubbing a whole fruit with a brush or a sponge is easier, but you can do that too. We cook them anyway. Corks are not worse, but we are all better.

It's a little more complicated though

Yes, that's actually what we're talking about ...

That little thing is easier for me in a washing machine, in a laundry bag scroll throw it away, rather than rub each sponge ...

By the way, I somehow bathed them, the skins, those that were separate from the fruit, in warm soda water, in a dryer for greens ...

And I, too, always before eating it with an abrasive sponge and then pour boiling water over it well, and that's it ...
But after all, according to the recipe, we soak them for a long time - changing the water, and there probably everything is washed off.
I am a "stupid cardboard", I was afraid to immediately put candied fruit in a jar with a lid, I kept it in a paper bag with flour, and they got so stiff that I now eat them like current caramels.
Now the question is how to cut them, if necessary, soak them? So they are in Sakha. powder?

I also made candied fruits, although it did not come to complete drying, I ate from a baking sheet, and that's what is interesting with oranges with a layer of white, which is much tastier under the skin. You bite like candy. I will do it, thanks for the recipe, you have to save up the crusts to make a lot at once. And then I decided to try with 5 oranges, it turned out a little

How to wash the skins already removed from the fruit)?

My homemade, never wash citrus fruits before peeling

Yes, yes, that's what interests me too! Mine, too, do not wash citrus fruits ... We will re-educate ...
But almost a kilogram of skins are in the freezer, what can I do with them now ??

[Ksyusha]

how to cut them if necessary, soak them? So they are in Sakha. powder?

Ksyusha, I also somehow had a place to be ...

I have them before using in baking, soaked in cognac ...

So I have for that sweet cognac the powdered sugar went into cognac, then there was a queue of the suffering ...

what to do with them now ??

Nastenka, I threw mine away without regret ...I'm cunning, of course, it was a pity all the same ... away from sin ...

Now I'm collecting wonderful "fatty" skins from tangerines, which I washed with my own hands according to all the rules immediately after purchase, all 2 kg. ...

threw my own without regret

Krosh, I won't be able to do it without regret either ...

Now I'm collecting wonderful "fatty" skins from tangerines, which I washed with my own hands according to all the rules immediately after purchase, all 2 kg.

I've already thought about it. Current, right now, something is calm here in terms of citrus fruits ...

[Crochet]

Crochet, thanks for the idea !

[salomeya29]

salomeya29, Crochet, girls, there is only one way out in this case - to wash everything yourself after the purchase and put clean fruits in a vase.
And I have two urgent questions. I started making candied fruits for the first time and it turns out that in 48 hours I changed the water only 7 times. True, there was a lot of water, 7 liters. Question number 1 - is it necessary to wet the eighth time or is it enough? Which is more important - soaking time or the number of water changes?
Question number 2 - I have not weighed the crusts before soaking (I know, I know what a noodle), now how to calculate the weight of sugar? I can weigh wet crusts, but how do you calculate the sand?
In short, save, help!

I came to say thank you for the recipe! 😊 Really tasty, really cooked at an accelerated pace. I don't like to wait long for the result ... My husband and I ate and in our thoughts thanked Kroshu. Now I'm finishing the third batch. And the most delicious lemon fruits for me. Thank you!

[Ritochka]

My husband and I ate and mentally thanked Kroshu

Ritochka, you didn't just spill balm on my soul, you brought down at least a distillery on it ...

I am very pleased, honestly ...

Thank you !!!

Good health to you and your soul mate !!!

And my syrup is liquid (after all, it should be thick, as I understand it) ... Almost like water, only sweet. Or is it supposed to be?
And I also have a full saucepan of syrup, the quantity has hardly decreased at all ...
I don't understand, maybe I'm doing something wrong ?? ...

[Angel with horns]

Angel with horns, Irin, I have not entered the topic for a long time, did not see that you asked the question. To be honest, I couldn't help you, I'm sorry. This is the very first time I make candied fruits, and I also had some misunderstandings.
Tell us what happened! Surely we got out of the situation!

My syrup turned out to be of medium thickness, but very, very little. I did not dry the candied fruit, I put the jam in jars, because the thin crusts became very thin during the cooking process, you will be tortured to separate them. And I don't know where to lay out such an amount and how to cover them from dust and cat fluff. I made a conclusion for myself that for dried candied fruits you need thick-baked fruits and a free table with perfectly clean air.

And the syrup got a LOT of water.
The crusts are plump .. they absorbed water, I tried to squeeze it out. what I could, I squeezed out, but still the water is mnooooooooo
So I've been boiling them for the third day already ... and the water does not get less ...

In-oh-from ..... a person has the same song as mine ..... Bli-in .... well, why should I do something ......
I just cannot understand how the crusts are saturated with syrup if they are saturated with water (in which they were soaked). I have a little pomelo crusts, yes, they are like a sponge. Well, they didn't eat water, but I didn't dare to squeeze out, on the advice of Kroshi ...
