Step 3: Add Sweetness Drain the peels and return them to the pot. Add mandarin and lemon juices. This blend imparts a lovely, natural sweetness and a fantastic aroma.
Step 4: Simmer to Perfection Gently simmer the mix, stirring now and then. When the peels turn translucent and the liquid becomes syrupy, you’ve hit the sweet spot. The peels will absorb the delicious citrus flavors.
Step 5: Enjoy Your Zesty Treat Let the mixture cool. The peels will turn into glossy, candied delights. Use them to zest up desserts or as a yummy snack on their own.
This recipe is not just tasty but also a great way to use every part of your mandarins. Next time you have mandarins, remember this recipe and transform those peels into a mouth-watering treat. Happy cooking!
