I used your recipe because it does not require adding more sugar. I was already making simple syrup for cocktails. Now I get to use all my lemons and orange peels. Thanks
The candied peel is lovely! I made a test batch and my huband ate it all up, some with chocolate, some without. So this week, time to make a nice big batch. I'm giving away jars of chopped candied peel and some made into chocolate covered peels. Thanks for your easy-to-follow recipe!
Thank you!! This was perfect! I'm giving a go at Hot Cross Buns and needed this recipe for the peels. This video was by far the best! Thank you for helping my buns! 😘
This saved my Christmas! There wasn’t a drop of peal in the stores in Canada! All sold out! I bought oranges, lemons, and limes and now I will never buy peal again. Thanks so much ❤️👍🏼
I have been making it for years ever since I read the ingredients and chemicals in the store bought stuff! Much healthier and I save my peels in the freezer until I have enough, then make a big batch, chop it in the food processor and freeze in bags. Wonderful for Teacakes, buns, fruitcakes etc and cost next to nothing!
This looks lovely! I have already cut up some tangerine and pomelo peel, can't wait to try it out! Also thank you for showing a variant where I won't have to coat them with extra sugar at the end
This video is great! I've perused a few different recipes and videos on this topic, and yours was by far the most informative. I especially appreciate your tips on peeling the oranges with the back of a spoon.
Thank you for this video! I needed to make a large amount of candied citrus peel for mince meat filling. Following your video I was able to make the amount I needed and have extra for some other things. The chocolate dipped peels are wonderful!
i really enjoyed your video, i wrote down EVERYTHING you did ! plus i saved your video, i really was happy about you showing a different way to peel the fruit. ive watched 4-5 different videos on this subject and you are the only one who peeled your fruit with the handle of a spoon ! tryed it and i gotta say it was extremly easier then some of the other ways i have watched. thank you for taking the time to show us a better and different way to do this. im excited to get busy with my fruit piled up on the counter....
If you have the orange peel scorer from Tupperware, which I remember was super popular in the 1970’s (at least here in Norway) - that makes it super easy to score your citrus peels too… 🤗🍊🍋🍊🍋🍊🍋
Chef i just came a cross this recipe ehile browsing how to make your candied orange peel...looks professional made and looks yummy will do in the future thnx
Thank you very much!!! Grazie Mille!! For this fantastic video. I love your style, and the way you make it & explain each detail!! I just bought lots of orange & will make candied orange peels by your recipe right now!!
Thank you, Steve. I’ve been wanting to find a good recipe for candied orange peel. I found some very good homemade style in a store recently, here in California, which is a rarity. And, I’ve been wondering .... thank you, again...
Sir, I really loved the way you did the candied peels. 😊 I also don't remove the pith - and I love the idea of NOT adding more sugar to the item. and drying in the oven. Thank you for sharing your recipe with us. 👍😊💐🇨🇦 PS : I will check your Panettone recipe too. 😊
I loooooved the video, it’s very clear and simple, i was looking for ways to do it bc I kept failing, the peels stayed way too bitter and I didn’t know what to do 😪😪 I tried it las week and they turned out awesome!!!
Hi Steve. I have made the candied peel from your recipe and it was so easy to understand and to make. However, I over calculated for the sugar syrup to use for the amount of peel I had so I saved the leftover syrup and bottled it and stored it in the fridge. It is coming in very useful for all sorts of ideas, and I have citrus flavoured sugar syrup available on tap!!
That's great to hear Joan. I find that the sugar syrup that is left over from making Peel has drawn out some of the sourness of the Pith and isn't to everybody's taste but if you find it fine that's great. Normally if you want a really easy to enjoy Lemon or Orange Syrup, it's better to us only the zest of the fruit but if it's great for you, then go for it and enjoy..
Lol, I've made Panettone this week and run out of peel now. The last time I had what I class as really good peel, it was from a market stall in Italy (and cost a fortune!) Oddly, here citrus peel is not sold everywhere (silly people!) but they sell whole candied fruits - which are largely tasteless. I'd have to travel 20 km just to get some... So I now have orange, lemon, pink grapefruit and lime simmering away. The smell is beautiful!
@@Steve-Owens Brilliant! Just what I wanted. So this morning I was wondering what to do with all the fruit...so I have now made a pot of Ginger Citrus Jam. See, no waste at all!
Wow, your candied peel looks delish! Thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial. I will be trying this tomorrow. I've sub'd. Greetings from FL, U.S. =)
Absolutely fantastic Steve!!! Thank you so much for shearing. We are going to use this orange peels to make a "Gâteau des Rois" to celebrate the Epiphany.
I just happened across this page because I can never peel the orange as you did Steve (cutting off the edges and rolling it out)...now I CANNOT wait to try this, which I will this weekend!
Thanks Steve...absolute delicious. The technic to peel the oranges...wow it really works...!!! Just today we did them agein, but this time we cut the oranges in a different way. First cut them in 8 pices then remove the orange from the peel using the knife horizontally. With this techinc a small layer of the fruit stay attached to the peel adding a little bit of extra flavor. My wife and daughters love them this way. Then cut the peel agein in 16's or even 32's and folow your recepy from there... Cheers...!
Our trees are full of fruit and I want to have this made for making hot cross buns on 4th April. How long do they keep these peels? And what do you do with the sugar syrup afterwards - I bet it is amazingly aromatic. Thank you for posting the recipe.
Just across this video and I'm going to make some candied lemons now!! Thanks a lot for sharing. What do you do with the remaining water+sugar syrup though?

Thank you, back home it Oz now ;o) I am happy you like the video..
Steve
Wonderfully professional and well-spoken teacher.
Thank you 🙏
So glad I found this: all the others I’ve watched are taking the pith😉😘
Steve you are a genius. So good to make candied peel like my grandmother used in her biscuits etc. I am only 83 and starting at old age😅
Nave to late to try new ideas :o)
I am looking forward to trying this recipe! I appreciate the quality of the video. The speech is so clear, directions are clear. Perfect, thank you :)

No doubt this is the best CANDIED PEEL recipe.
Find Tupperware orange peeler makes life easy.
Also soda can push tab with ring still on makes great peeler as it just deep enough. 😉
Thank you!! This was perfect! I'm giving a go at Hot Cross Buns and needed this recipe for the peels. This video was by far the best! Thank you for helping my buns! 😘
My Grandmother used to put small cut up bits of candied oranges in scones, they were so delicious!
Thanks for this! My Mom used to make this for us when I was a kid. Glad I found your recipe. I can't wait to try it out!
You are welcome!
I love the details you mentioned in this video. What to do and what not to do. I give away this wonderful treat for holiday gifts.

Enjoy...

Also thank you for showing a variant where I won't have to coat them with extra sugar at the end
Welcome, I feel the extra sugar makes them too sweet and for sure a lot less wholesome.
Thank you, I tried this and it's so good. I made it for a gift to my family and friends. Thanks, watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
You are most welcome..

Good luck, hope they are Delicious.. :o)

@@Steve-Owens hi Steve. I only left a very small amount of pith on the zest maybe thats why it didn't taste bitter.
Brilliant! Just what I was missing for my Christmas Cake! Thanks.
Excellent
Awesome tutorial. That will come in handy for the holiday baking.
Thanks Anne, They will.. And guess what, I forgot that halved Lemon I put in the fridge, 'till it was too late.. Silly me..

So happy to find this recipe for my Christmas cake, looks a lot better than the mixed peel available in groceries stores for holiday baking. Thanks!
Very clearly explained and looks easy too. I am definitely going to try it out
Thank you, great recipe. Can the leftover syrup be used for anything?
It tends to be a little sour, try it and decide for yourself.. It's perfectly safe :o)
I still find myself wondering why you don't have a network syndicated TV cooking show! Smart. Charming. Knowledgeable. What gives?!
I will do this one day of this week !
Ha! Perfect timing, as I was just looking for such a recipe. Thanks Steve.
Thank you Annie

I am using clementine peel. I think they’re just a little too thin. The orange/lemon peels turned out better.
Yes, they are not the best skins for this unfortunately..

Just across this video and I'm going to make some candied lemons now!! Thanks a lot for sharing. What do you do with the remaining water+sugar syrup though?
It makes a great dressing for Ice Cream or Yoghurt
You could use it in teas,or in a cake recipe,like moisten up a cake etc
awesome love it
Very nice!!!!
Thanks..
