Thank you for watching. Here is the free printale recipe - curatedkitchenware.com/blogs/soupeduprecipes/candy-orange-peel Ingredients 400g of sugar 300g of orange peel, about 6 large oranges 1/2 cup of fresh orange juice, from 1 large orange 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, optional enough sugar to coat the orange peel Instructions This sugar orange peel tastes like soft candy, so delicious. This recipe works with all kinds of citrus peel, such as lemon, lime, tangerine, grapefruit, and pomelo. Freshly juice 1 orange, and you should get about 1/2 cup of juice. Depending on the type of citrus fruit you use, you can change to a different citrus juice. However, if you are using lime or lemon, which are extra sour, you only need 3 tbsp instead of 1/2 cup. Cut the orange peel into small pieces. Use a utility knife to remove the white layer from the orange peel. However, don’t remove it completely. Leave a little bit of pith for better texture. Boil the orange peel for 10 minutes, then change the water and soak overnight to remove the bitter taste. Drain and transfer the peel into a pan. Add sugar, orange juice, and, optionally, vanilla. Stir and simmer over medium-low heat until the syrup thickens (about 25 minutes). Let it dry on a rack (about 1 hour) and coat with more sugar to prevent sticking. It can stay good in a sealed jar at room temperature for 3 weeks.
For people complaining about the amount of sugar: That's why its a treat and NOT a meal. A person could enjoy ONE with tea and be done, not a plateful. 🙄
ah, social media has made people stupidly critical but ultimately they're just doing it because they're asshole (and probably blindly stupid to what they're criticizing). God, I miss when people could be half-way decent or at least have remaining manners to things that ultimately don't effect you or "hax"(which can actually hurt you)
"we weren't rich but she would surprise us with all of these creative treats" then the smile she gave after saying that. Some mothers are just incredible. The things we do for our kids 🥹
It was so sweet and heartwarming to see you say “we weren’t rich but my mother would surprise us with all these creative treats”😊 thank you for the recipe.
It’s so lovely to see such an old fashioned treat being made. I’m 64yo and for many years l use to make Candied Orange Peel for my Mom for Mother’s Day. Our recipes are the same but our cooking methods are slightly different. Mine are extremely dried out and l also dip half of each Candied Peel in a Dark Chocolate.
I collect my orange and lemon peels and freeze them. Whenever I have guests, I boil a handful in an open pot with a stick of cinnamon and the smell would linger around the house.
My mom is a realtor and she always gets sample paints (the mini cans) and opens them and puts them around the rooms in a closet shelf pushed back so you can’t see it, and she warms up a chocolate chip cookie in the microwave and it makes the whole kitchen smell like fresh baked cookies. ❤ She had tons of little tricks like that.
@@nicoleallen6792 I think there’s actually a psychology on freshly baked cookies in an open house(at least in the US) , it induces a sense of childhood nostalgia but one survey found out that freshly baked bread works even better. Cookies just doubles down as an easier open house treat.
Seems everyone like this and I’ve got one more. Idk if everyone knows this but the fastest way to get rid of any bad smell is to boil 4cups of water with a capful of your own favourite fabric conditioner. My asian mom is a pescatarian. She occasionally cooks dried fish and the scent is really really strong but this trick gets rid of any fishy smell in 5mins or less. Works a lot better than febreeze.
After you boil it the first time, don't throw out the water. It now has the natural orange oils in the peel. Keep it and add some vinegar for an all-natural and non-toxic cleaner or use it to deodorize your home.
@@bluevalentine252 That's a good question. I just looked it up and it seems you can use it to make tea. If you decide to try it, be sure to first wash the peels really well in diluted vinegar to cleanse it from pesticides, bacteria, etc.
to all the people concerned about sugar this is completely natural and plain sugar. if you were to compare this to any candy in america it would be way more sugar per serving not including the artificial dyes, ingredients in traditional candy and the fact that its all processed if not ultra processed. This is a great video and looks very delicious!!!
Also it's a sweat treat/snacks of course it's sugary but You're not going to eat them 24/7 soo it's completely normal and fine people forget that anything can be healthy with moderation

My g-grandma used to make orange and lemon 'twirlers' from our orchard (you can candy the rind of many fruits, I also loved candied watermelon rind). She would wrap them around cinnamon sticks and dredge them in sugar to dry. Gave them as xmas gifts for use in tea. They also made wonderful treats! The water was never thrown out, though. It was the base for cleaners and the sugar syrup drained off was the base for syrup, jam, marmalade and homemade wines. Tips from the generation that started the original recycling movement, lol.
@@wendyfay16 similar. Didn't soak overnight. Orange were boiled once for 5-7 mins water was drained and saved for cleaning solutions or citrus ades. Lemon, lime & grapefruit were boiled twice water saved for same. No vanilla, which had me turning my nose up, lol. Peels were put in a pan on low, with equal parts sugar, honey (because we had fresh from my uncle's hives) juice & water. Cook on low until all sugar melts, turn to medium low until a slow boil. Cook until peels are translucent. Drain (saving liquid for syrup, wine, jelly makings) When peels are cool enough to handle wrap around cinnamon sticks and dredge in sugar. Granny would leave them in the covered sugar container for a few days, shaking now & then. I wasn't too fond of the grapefruit sticks, but loved her grapefruit chews.
❤Candied citrus peels were a signifying treat that it was Christmas when I was growing up, eldest of 16 siblings. (12 were orphaned and we just took them on in!) The candying process dries out best with extra sugar...plus we called them "sugar plums" like from the story. That many children meant sacrifices but our Mom always made Christmas a joyous wonder. Thanks Mama....you deserve your peacefully resting now. ❤
I had a neighbor living right behind my house and across a canal who had an extremely large family. The Browns. They bought an old school bus and drove it as their family car when they were taking everyone together. Im also in a big family but you’ve definitely got me beat😅. I’m #10 out of 11 kids, all of us from the same set of parents. Just goes to show you how beautiful, loving families come in every shape and size. 💙💚💛🧡❤️💜🖤🤍🤎
By some standards they WERE rich. My father in law's family couldnt afford sugar OR oranges. He told me his mom would snaeak them an orange (so their dad didnt know she spent money on the oranges) around Christmas. And there were NO gifts, and no tree.
I come from average family but my grandma grew up poor and during a war so she didn’t get much sweets as a child. Her mom instead made bread toasted on a pan with butter and then added some sugar on it. My grandma used to prepare it as a sweet snack for her children and grandchildren too. It was delicious.
My grandma's watermelon rind pickles can't be made the same way anymore because some of the ingredients got banned for causing cancer! I think the risk was worth it, lol. Best pickles in the world.
We do that with pumpkin, too. It's becomes crispy Sugary on the out side & moist full of almost honey on the inside. I have been trying to replicate it since I was 20 years old, and now I am 40. Still no luck. I was born in Syria so if you are syrian you might know what I am talking about. I grew up in Egypt now in the USA since 2001.h
My aunt would sugar zested lemons and oranges, soak golden raisins in dark rum and then toss everything in cinnamon and sugar (sometimes adding cocoa just for me) and put that mixture in a cinnamon roll. We'd eat them straight from the oven as is when she wasn't looking.
Same. I soak in filtered water in the fridge for 2 days to cold brew it. Then I add a little sugar and it's delicious. You can also eat the peels at that point.
Only buy bio fruits! Because they don’t spray pesticides on it. Or else you eat lots of pesticides no matter how hard you clean it as it went inside the peel a bit
to those who want to try it out but is lazy to write down the steps, screenshot this 👍 1. remove the whites from the peel 2. boil for 10 minutes 3. soak overnight after boiling to get rid of bitterness 4. strain and cook the peel with orange juice and sugar until the syrup thickens 5. dry it on a rack 6. coat it with more sugar
@@ThatDruidDude They are called candied orange peels, and candied orange peels dipped in chocolate, if done so. It's a recipe from the olden days when more ladies stayed home to look after the family and both parents didn't have to work outside the home.
@@BALLERMEMER-mo3fo Ohhh there you guys prefer mangoes? :0 In my country (Romania) we usually call it candied oranges or candied mangoes or candied limes depending on the fruit. I see these 3 most often in shops. I love the dried mangoes!!! 🫶
This gave me a new appreciation for people sharing their recipes online. It happens so much online and i don't think much of it but this felt so genuine. Thanks for sharing!
As a Cuban, we made something similar, only difference was we boiled the peels in water until really soft, instead of drying it out, we ate it as is,soft, almost like a jam , warm(or cool), with honey cinnamon syrup, and a slice of any cheese at hand.😊 It tasted a little bit bittersweet, yet still sweet and savory at the same time.
Cuban born here from Holguin City ,in my town is usually made with sour orange or grapefruit ,is more like a jam but less thick and it has to be boiled several times to take away the sourness and , My grandma use to make this, I used to make it back there too ,a big pot ,a loot of sugar ,but we shared with family and friends ,and only ate a litle to make it last .More healty than any candy from here.Good times,good memories.
Here in Italy we do the same thing and we also do the same with lemon peels. They are delicious and we often use them as decoration in some sweets from south Italy 😋 Thank you for sharing a sweet moment of your childhood 😊
It’s always fascinating to me to see the same kind of culinary tradition evolve in separate cultures. This means candied citrus peels are human i think 😄
For the people complaining about sugar, you don't have to eat all of it, just eat one piece, it will still contain less sugar than your energy drink or donut/cake..
@@UlfaIndiasariWhere do you live that sugar is expensive? You don’t even need to use as much as she did in the video, just enough to thoroughly cover the peels.
These are a classic winter holiday candy in my area!!! They taste like the best part of Christmas to me. Thank you for reminding me about this recipe I haven't made in so long!
@@gardensofthegods yes! I use that for cleaning all the grease from the kitchen when added baking soda. The orange oil is wonderful on my wood floors. And all this cleaning can be done while you wait on the oranges to cool. It's such a time saver.
I'm really impressed with how far you've come with your English pronounciation. People that speak more than one language really impress me. Thanks for that ❤
I made this for her 1 year ago . She sent me your video and told me to make this for you . I made it and she liked that . Unfortunately , she left me on May 1 ,2024 . For you I got a really special moment with her . This memory will always be fresh in my mind . Thank you ❤
Isnt it funny reading the comments about the sugar. When really this is far healthier in every aspect then 99% of sweet stuff you can buy from the store...... There was less sugar in that bowl then in a bottle of coke. Let that sink in.
👍We weren't rich either & we lived & ate simply, but Really Well. My eldest sis made Candied Orange Peel, Potato Skin Chips, Choc-Coated Orange Peel. We pushed Cloves into Oranges to keep moths out of our closets & make our clothes smell Lovely! We made soap, my mum made matching denim jumpsuits👖for my 2 sisters & I (plus hot pants🩳 - go the 70s!) & dad made us all matching wooden clogs with denim straps (ah, the 70s again!). We made artwork by weaving coloured string in patterns around nails hammered into wooden boards, or painting a board in bright colours, covering with black paint & scratching a pattern through the black paint to reveal the colour underneath. We sewed, we Crocheted, we knitted, we made Macrame plant holders ... All of which I see on UA-cam & TikTok - & it just warms my heart! I ❤LOVE❤ my Tech & my ability to stream & binge & be instantly connected - but I love the old-school arts & crafts from my childhood - that were cutting-edge back then! Once more: Go the 70s! ❤
70s and 80s even through 90s .. these were the good old times, as we always say .. simple pleasures brightening our lives.. Today’s fast pace of life makes us yearning, the good old days !!!
My grandmother taught me how to make candied orange and lemon peel years ago. We cut them into thinner strips. We used to always make them around Christmas. Seeing this brought back some happy childhood memories with my grandmother.
@@Sajielovesrblx sweet with a little tanginess. It's best to get most of the white pith off because too much of it makes it bitter. You can also do lime and grapefruit peels too.
@@tonileigh8660 oh ty but I don’t think my mom won’t lemme make ‘em cuz we haven’t moved and my house isn’t like that good with melted sugar since it’s new to our house
My grandmother used to make candied grapefruit peels every Christmas when i was a child and it was always my favorite candy snack!! Thank you for this!!
My grandmother made this when I was a kid and never shared the recipie, thank you! She also made grapefruit peel "candy" which I think I liked even better. I will be making this, soon!
My grandma made those every Christmas to put in our stockings! I’ve never seen anyone else make them. I loved them so much that she would give me more than anyone else. She even started sending me some throughout the year. Fond memories!
I’m from Russia and I was raised during hard period for my country. My granny did this thing for me and the other ones that I loved were home cheese boiled balls with sugar and sour cream. She’s in heaven now and I miss her so much🩵
@@anastasias.9666same here ❤ I literally understand your English. Don't you worry there's no perfect English at all. Everytime I talk English I can't help mix it with other language 😅 I promised. So I have to translate for them 😂 I only speak 5 languages so far.
This seems like a very nice treat! Just please consider, if you buy oranges from a store or supermarket, there is a good chance their peels are treated with fungicides/pesticides like imazalil. It is not recommended to eat large quantities of orange peel treated with Imazalil, and it very hard to clean from the peel once applied.
Exactly my thoughts! I would never do this with conventionally grown citrus(conventionsl = poisons used usually). So need organic which makes it a pricier treat. Sadly. Not that long ago it was all organic. Pre1940’s.
Yes! I'm surprised I had to scroll down so far for this, but oranges are often heavily chemically treated, and even "bio" or "eco" oranges aren't necessarily safe. Unless you can be sure they're safe, such as growing them yourself if that's possible in your area, I really wouldn't recommend this treat.
Well thank you for this idea 🤦 I love making cocktails and am a bartender, trying to work my way up into bigger venues, didn't once think to use this as a garnish while watching, I'm an idiot. Cheers for that lmao x 🙏
I love recipes that have a deep connection like this 🥰 you just really see how much love and care goes into the food and it means so much that you’re sharing it with us to hopefully not mess up and enjoy too 😂 thank you so much 🙏🏻 my family would love these!
That's a great idea! If they're organic, I usually peel the orange part of the skin (only the orange part) and dry it on a plate to use for tea. Will try this too at some point!
“We weren’t rich”. Remember growing up. Mom canned, preserved, pickled everything in the garden. We always had enough to eat. Summer was special because the garden stuff was fresh! I never thought about it. I was a kid. Looking back, it does make me appreciate what I have now, mostly because that is what my parents wanted for me!
I agree. My mama used to make watermelon jam and she made the best peach pie. She would place a big slice of cheese on the plate and put warm peach pie on top of it. Yummy. Those were the good old days
I started making chocolate covered orange peel last year when I was eating a lot of oranges. It was a treat prior to that which cost around $15/lb. in fancy confectionery stores.
I do this for Thanksgiving every year with lemon peels as well. I add cinnamon, cloves and allspice to the water as well as the sugar and vanilla. I cut them into small strips and add them to My yams🍠 EXCELLENT
That's called "casquinha caramelo" and it's very common here in the countryside of Brasil 🇧🇷😊 You can chop it finely and glaze it with fire in the end for crunchyness, it's a really delicious source of vit C
@@QuadriviumNumbers Yeah, one she must've had to figure out herself. Coming up with inexpensive treats for her family does require a certain amount of thought 😅
Oh how lovely. My Mom always made this when we were growing up. She grew up in the depression years. She always found ways to save food. You can always use grapefruit peel, which was always our favorite!!!
I've made this before, the result tastes EXACTLY like artificial orange flavored candy. I realize that this is what the orange flavor was trying to re-create --- candied orange peels were the original orange candy.
I remember my grandma telling me how excited she was during the depression when she’d get an orange in her stocking. She told me she ate the whole peel and all like it was candy. It blew my mind as a little girl
My grandparents had a similar experience during WWII in Ireland. It was difficult to get fruit and when their dad managed to bring home an orange, it sat on the counter for a couple days so they could all look at it and smell it before they all enjoyed it together
@@AsMr-km6ex thank you for asking!remarkably they are very yummy☺️enjoying a couple with my afternoon tea, when eaten together they make fresh apples & bananas taste way more intense👏🥂😋
I have some blood orange peels in the fridge that I've been saving up to make a big batch of this! If you boil and change the water a couple more times, you can also candy peels without trimming them. I like them even better when they're thick and juicy rather than thin and crispy!
@@hanadr Until it's enough. The bitterness bothers some people more than others, so you just have to test a small piece every couple of changes until it's ok for you.
Thank you for watching. Here is the free printale recipe - curatedkitchenware.com/blogs/soupeduprecipes/candy-orange-peel
Ingredients
400g of sugar
300g of orange peel, about 6 large oranges
1/2 cup of fresh orange juice, from 1 large orange
1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, optional
enough sugar to coat the orange peel
Instructions
This sugar orange peel tastes like soft candy, so delicious. This recipe works with all kinds of citrus peel, such as lemon, lime, tangerine, grapefruit, and pomelo.
Freshly juice 1 orange, and you should get about 1/2 cup of juice. Depending on the type of citrus fruit you use, you can change to a different citrus juice. However, if you are using lime or lemon, which are extra sour, you only need 3 tbsp instead of 1/2 cup.
Cut the orange peel into small pieces. Use a utility knife to remove the white layer from the orange peel. However, don’t remove it completely. Leave a little bit of pith for better texture.
Boil the orange peel for 10 minutes, then change the water and soak overnight to remove the bitter taste.
Drain and transfer the peel into a pan. Add sugar, orange juice, and, optionally, vanilla.
Stir and simmer over medium-low heat until the syrup thickens (about 25 minutes).
Let it dry on a rack (about 1 hour) and coat with more sugar to prevent sticking. It can stay good in a sealed jar at room temperature for 3 weeks.
It really looks great. Very tasty🎉

I almost cried w/ she explained they weren't rich, but her mom made a precious 🍊 thoughtful treat. Clearly made w/ Love. Go mom 💖
❤❤ so sweet 🥹
By some standards they WERE rich. My father in law's family couldnt afford sugar OR oranges.
He told me his mom would snaeak them an orange (so their dad didnt know she spent money on the oranges) around Christmas.
And there were NO gifts, and no tree.
I come from average family but my grandma grew up poor and during a war so she didn’t get much sweets as a child. Her mom instead made bread toasted on a pan with butter and then added some sugar on it. My grandma used to prepare it as a sweet snack for her children and grandchildren too. It was delicious.
Knowing how to do stuff is a kind of wealth
With love and a truckload of sugar 👀
My grandmother used to do this with watermelon rinds. It was such a treat for us grandchildren!
Did she do it the same way?
My mother made watermelon pickles which I loved with prime rib
@@jeannewilliams2223watermelon pickles??? This sounds both intriguing and off putting at the same time!!! 😂
My grandma's watermelon rind pickles can't be made the same way anymore because some of the ingredients got banned for causing cancer! I think the risk was worth it, lol. Best pickles in the world.
so it can be done with watermelon also?
Mad respect for your mom! Very creative and resourceful!
It’s Chinese traditional food not her mom created 😂
@@CuộcsốngĐanMạch what the creator said is that her mom made these treats even if they weren't rich, she did not say her mom invented the recipe.
@@CuộcsốngĐanMạch It's made and eaten around the world.
Different parts of the world do it too. It's not original to her mother.
Its old as hell😁
BRO ITS SO GOOD TYSM FOR THE RECIPE❤❤❤❤❤
Mom’s all over the world making a way out of no way! Thanks for sharing.
Facts! 😂
Yes!
We do that with pumpkin, too. It's becomes crispy Sugary on the out side & moist full of almost honey on the inside. I have been trying to replicate it since I was 20 years old, and now I am 40. Still no luck. I was born in Syria so if you are syrian you might know what I am talking about. I grew up in Egypt now in the USA since 2001.h
RIGHT MY MOM USE TO MAKE US DONUTS OUT OF BISCUITS ROLLS VREY GOOD TREAT AND WE WOULD HELP THANK YOU MOMMY AND SO I DO IT WITH MY SON ❤❤❤❤❤❤
God makes a way for wherever seems to be no way
I'm 67. You brought memories of what my grandmother did with her backyard tangelo tree. We only took nibbles. They were delicious.
My aunt would sugar zested lemons and oranges, soak golden raisins in dark rum and then toss everything in cinnamon and sugar (sometimes adding cocoa just for me) and put that mixture in a cinnamon roll. We'd eat them straight from the oven as is when she wasn't looking.
Mmmm tangelos, you’re so lucky 😋
Nice i wouldnt do this with store bought as they spray them with stuff.
The pith part is also really good for you
I use the pith, ground into a healthy green or fruit drink. Its very healthy, thr pith.
I save mine for tea it helps with stomach cramp ladies.
Thanks for the tip!
Same. I soak in filtered water in the fridge for 2 days to cold brew it. Then I add a little sugar and it's delicious. You can also eat the peels at that point.
I've never met a Stomach Cramp Lady, but now I know how to defend myself if I ever see one. Thank you for your wisdom.
@@Tony-iu7sw bc you don't have a period/menstruation 🩸😂
Please explain. 😭
My grandma used to make these for me and my brother when we were kids ❤😊 Brings back memories from childhood 💖
You had a mom that made you stuff like that...in a way, you were very rich ❤️
I like this comment alot😊
This is an amazing comment. ❤
this is the way to look at life!! 💕💕💕
Gangam style
@NonGrata Sugar is cheap though.
I tried it with lemons and it taste so good! Thanks for sharing the recipe with us!
Only buy bio fruits! Because they don’t spray pesticides on it. Or else you eat lots of pesticides no matter how hard you clean it as it went inside the peel a bit
You must have extremely sharp knives to have separated most of the pith from the peel like that.
@carrington2949 it was a bit hard but the knife was sharp.
@@CraftingIsFun1791 its was bitter?
@FatimaAmjad-x4c for me it was sweet so maybe we have different taste buds
to those who want to try it out but is lazy to write down the steps, screenshot this 👍
1. remove the whites from the peel
2. boil for 10 minutes
3. soak overnight after boiling to get rid of bitterness
4. strain and cook the peel with orange juice and sugar until the syrup thickens
5. dry it on a rack
6. coat it with more sugar
You a real one 👏
Thank you!
Yeah thank you so much!
People like you deserve extra fries and cookies.
I'm not lazy - I'm just motivated for comfort 😂
thank you .this was soooo good me and my dad made this together
In Chile we don't coat with more sugar but we dip it in bitter chocolate. Sooo good
We do something similar in Italy, first sugar and half dipped into chocolate
What does it called ? Sounds delish
In the U.S. too.
@@ThatDruidDude They are called candied orange peels, and candied orange peels dipped in chocolate, if done so. It's a recipe from the olden days when more ladies stayed home to look after the family and both parents didn't have to work outside the home.
This sounds good
I LOVED these as a kid, I would get on my knees and beg for them at the store.
what's it called?
@@GreyisthinkingCandied orange peels. :D
@@MaybeMewlynfor me its in the Philippines so its called dried mangoes
@@BALLERMEMER-mo3fo Ohhh there you guys prefer mangoes? :0 In my country (Romania) we usually call it candied oranges or candied mangoes or candied limes depending on the fruit. I see these 3 most often in shops. I love the dried mangoes!!! 🫶
thats called sugar rush.
This gave me a new appreciation for people sharing their recipes online. It happens so much online and i don't think much of it but this felt so genuine. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah but too much sugar, far too much and wouldn't even give even a few to a kid due to teeth issues
my grandmother also used the white part to make soft candies, they are cooked in sugar and water and then dried up and taste like heaven!
im from the caribbean and this is also a snack in some islands .... it reminds me how recipes travel far and wide and bring people together
Mexican here. My grandma does this with limes (limones). It's bittersweet and refreshing. 100/10 would recommend.
You look a lil like lady Gaga 😊
I love these
The lime version sounds bangin
Could have sworn limes are “limas” and lemons are “limones”
@@vhs6055Limes are limones verdes.
As a Cuban, we made something similar, only difference was we boiled the peels in water until really soft, instead of drying it out, we ate it as is,soft, almost like a jam , warm(or cool), with honey cinnamon syrup, and a slice of any cheese at hand.😊 It tasted a little bit bittersweet, yet still sweet and savory at the same time.
I almost thought she was about to do that. 😊
Sounds a bit like marmalade honestly
Does this have a name? Sounds delish!
I'm Latina too, and where I live we have something called dulce desamargado, sounds similar :D .
Cuban born here from Holguin City ,in my town is usually made with sour orange or grapefruit ,is more like a jam but less thick and it has to be boiled several times to take away the sourness and , My grandma use to make this, I used to make it back there too ,a big pot ,a loot of sugar ,but we shared with family and friends ,and only ate a litle to make it last .More healty than any candy from here.Good times,good memories.
Looks so good ☺️☺️
Here in Italy we do the same thing and we also do the same with lemon peels. They are delicious and we often use them as decoration in some sweets from south Italy 😋 Thank you for sharing a sweet moment of your childhood 😊
Limoncello is fantastic as well
They are so pretty on cakes!
This is what gets baked into panettone
It’s always fascinating to me to see the same kind of culinary tradition evolve in separate cultures.
This means candied citrus peels are human i think 😄
Ma perché parliamo inglese nei commenti italiani se siamo italiani?

For the people complaining about sugar, you don't have to eat all of it, just eat one piece, it will still contain less sugar than your energy drink or donut/cake..
It's an expensive treat
@@UlfaIndiasariWhere do you live that sugar is expensive? You don’t even need to use as much as she did in the video, just enough to thoroughly cover the peels.
Not less than my energy drink and donut, because I don't consume energy drinks and donuts/cakes. (Too much sugar and simple carbs.)
Or the 3 tsp they put in their tea!
@@djondjonvirtue signal much?
I’ve tried those but store bought and if this is anything like them, they’re so good❤
These are a classic winter holiday candy in my area!!! They taste like the best part of Christmas to me. Thank you for reminding me about this recipe I haven't made in so long!
We used to make them in elementary school before winter break
I use the water I boiled the Orange rinds in as a cleaning agent for the home.
Seems like a good idea!
And works great as plant fertilizer and pesticide
Great tips! Thanks!
Yep because it has orange oil in it ... smart idea and I think I'm going to start doing that and add it to the baking soda I used to clean my home
@@gardensofthegods yes! I use that for cleaning all the grease from the kitchen when added baking soda.
The orange oil is wonderful on my wood floors.
And all this cleaning can be done while you wait on the oranges to cool. It's such a time saver.
I'm really impressed with how far you've come with your English pronounciation. People that speak more than one language really impress me. Thanks for that ❤

This girl just lit up my day keep up the positive energy
I made this for her 1 year ago . She sent me your video and told me to make this for you . I made it and she liked that . Unfortunately , she left me on May 1 ,2024 . For you I got a really special moment with her . This memory will always be fresh in my mind . Thank you ❤
I was really confused reading that as the wording is weird but im sorry for your loss❤
🙏🙏🙏
Im so sorry for your loss, rest in peace
I'm so glad I found this again. I'm making them tomorrow. Thx to you and your Mom for the idea. So smart!
How was it?
@bethwithers4798 how was it 🤔
Yes how was it???
Isnt it funny reading the comments about the sugar. When really this is far healthier in every aspect then 99% of sweet stuff you can buy from the store...... There was less sugar in that bowl then in a bottle of coke. Let that sink in.
Beth, we need answers
👍We weren't rich either & we lived & ate simply, but Really Well. My eldest sis made Candied Orange Peel, Potato Skin Chips, Choc-Coated Orange Peel. We pushed Cloves into Oranges to keep moths out of our closets & make our clothes smell Lovely! We made soap, my mum made matching denim jumpsuits👖for my 2 sisters & I (plus hot pants🩳 - go the 70s!) & dad made us all matching wooden clogs with denim straps (ah, the 70s again!). We made artwork by weaving coloured string in patterns around nails hammered into wooden boards, or painting a board in bright colours, covering with black paint & scratching a pattern through the black paint to reveal the colour underneath. We sewed, we Crocheted, we knitted, we made Macrame plant holders ... All of which I see on UA-cam & TikTok - & it just warms my heart! I ❤LOVE❤ my Tech & my ability to stream & binge & be instantly connected - but I love the old-school arts & crafts from my childhood - that were cutting-edge back then! Once more: Go the 70s! ❤
نعم انه الزمن الجميل 🩷 والان بالرغم التطور لكنه يفقد ذلك الطابع الكلاسيكي وقليلا ما تجد شخص يمارس هذه الحرف التقليدية
Don't forget about popsicle stick crafts and putting 500 piece puzzles together. 🙂 Good times for sure.
One of the best comment i read today❤
i can literally feel you love and nostalgia even from the screen
70s and 80s even through 90s .. these were the good old times, as we always say .. simple pleasures brightening our lives..
Today’s fast pace of life makes us yearning, the good old days !!!
Same!!!
How simple and beautiful was our living
Bless ur mom for giving you all the creative and amazing stuff even of you arent rich
that looks so yummy... i bet a few of those slices with a cup of lavender tea would go so perfectly between lunch and supper
Lavender tea… Intriguing
i made them, but dipped mine halfway in chocolate :) it's incredible with tea. you should try it if you have the resources to!
My mum keeps the peels and uses them as fire lighters. They actually work very well when theyre dried out.
Never thought of that one, I bet that smells ace
Peel is full of the oil used to disperse fat. Terpenes. So many uses including flammability when dried.
Oh I bet it smells good too
My grandmother taught me how to make candied orange and lemon peel years ago. We cut them into thinner strips. We used to always make them around Christmas. Seeing this brought back some happy childhood memories with my grandmother.
Same
What does it taste like? I’ve never had one
@@Sajielovesrblx sweet with a little tanginess. It's best to get most of the white pith off because too much of it makes it bitter. You can also do lime and grapefruit peels too.
@@tonileigh8660 oh ty but I don’t think my mom won’t lemme make ‘em cuz we haven’t moved and my house isn’t like that good with melted sugar since it’s new to our house
I love eating this thank you for showing me how to cook
My grandmother used to make candied grapefruit peels every Christmas when i was a child and it was always my favorite candy snack!! Thank you for this!!
My grandmother made this when I was a kid and never shared the recipie, thank you! She also made grapefruit peel "candy" which I think I liked even better. I will be making this, soon!
My grandma made those every Christmas to put in our stockings! I’ve never seen anyone else make them. I loved them so much that she would give me more than anyone else. She even started sending me some throughout the year. Fond memories!
Awesome Memories for you....❤
yuck
I don't know why that made me cry 😭 it's beautiful
@@MsSarcasticitywhat do you think about the palestine and Israeli war?
My gram made these every Christmas as well. She also made some out of grapefruit peel. They were delicious!
I’m from Russia and I was raised during hard period for my country. My granny did this thing for me and the other ones that I loved were home cheese boiled balls with sugar and sour cream. She’s in heaven now and I miss her so much🩵
You mean your grandma is IN heaven. We mostly use "on" when something is physically on top of something else.
@@edwardhill3410was just bout to say that
@@edwardhill3410dude that's not the point
@@edwardhill3410 Thank you! English is not my first language and I'm trying to improve it by writing comments.
@@anastasias.9666same here ❤ I literally understand your English. Don't you worry there's no perfect English at all. Everytime I talk English I can't help mix it with other language 😅 I promised. So I have to translate for them 😂 I only speak 5 languages so far.
You a a very smart lady it’s so heartwarming I tried it and it works thanks for this video 😊😊😊😊😊
This seems like a very nice treat! Just please consider, if you buy oranges from a store or supermarket, there is a good chance their peels are treated with fungicides/pesticides like imazalil. It is not recommended to eat large quantities of orange peel treated with Imazalil, and it very hard to clean from the peel once applied.
Exactly my thoughts! I would never do this with conventionally grown citrus(conventionsl = poisons used usually).
So need organic which makes it a pricier treat. Sadly. Not that long ago it was all organic. Pre1940’s.
Once you boil it it’s fine, the pesticides and any other residue gets boiled off.
Yes! I'm surprised I had to scroll down so far for this, but oranges are often heavily chemically treated, and even "bio" or "eco" oranges aren't necessarily safe.
Unless you can be sure they're safe, such as growing them yourself if that's possible in your area, I really wouldn't recommend this treat.
I made this today, for the first time. The orange bits drying on the rack are disappearing quickly. I haven't even added the sugar yet. 😂 Yummm
😂😂😂 awesome
Whats Manilla
I wanna make it!! It’s just me so I wonder could I freeze my peels until I gather enough 🤔
@@creekbird_homesteadshould be able to freeze them. Might want to cut the inside first, could make it a little easier when you get to the cooking
@@creekbird_homesteadmy thoughts also, nobody eats 20 oranges one day
I chopped it small and mixed it into my orange cake ...taste so good when you get the bite of the candied orange peals
Peels
@@ceecee8757 thanks for correction to my typo ... At least u got my point 😉
Ooh, I bet that would be good. Going to give that a try! Thanks 😊
omg it looks just like dried mango!! i bet i'd eat the entirety
totally gonna make this for bartending! would be perfect for an old fashioned
I’ve had these in cocktails before! It was such a cool touch, they wrapped it around a stick so they would dry like a spiral.
I always added water to the sugar when doing this. The remaining sugary liquid makes a great simple syrup.
Well thank you for this idea 🤦 I love making cocktails and am a bartender, trying to work my way up into bigger venues, didn't once think to use this as a garnish while watching, I'm an idiot. Cheers for that lmao x 🙏
Its so cute how you can see the love in her eyes for her mom doing these special things for her as a child
All I can see is eyelids and spects...
My grandma made these. It was such a treat. Thank you for reminding me.
I love the sentiment of her memories and not wasting the peel too❤
I love recipes that have a deep connection like this 🥰 you just really see how much love and care goes into the food and it means so much that you’re sharing it with us to hopefully not mess up and enjoy too 😂 thank you so much 🙏🏻 my family would love these!
That's a great idea! If they're organic, I usually peel the orange part of the skin (only the orange part) and dry it on a plate to use for tea. Will try this too at some point!
How can u use it for tea?
Lovely idea, thanks for sharing!
“We weren’t rich”.
Remember growing up. Mom canned, preserved, pickled everything in the garden. We always had enough to eat. Summer was special because the garden stuff was fresh!
I never thought about it. I was a kid.
Looking back, it does make me appreciate what I have now, mostly because that is what my parents wanted for me!
I agree. My mama used to make watermelon jam and she made the best peach pie. She would place a big slice of cheese on the plate and put warm peach pie on top of it. Yummy. Those were the good old days
Well, we don't have fresh fruit anymore...
Does anyone remember watermelon rind pickles? OMGoodness those were good, lots of clove in the jars....YUM
@@oceansams5886peach pie on cheese?
My mom literally makes this every year for Christmas-it’s a family fav! Yours looks good af
I started making chocolate covered orange peel last year when I was eating a lot of oranges. It was a treat prior to that which cost around $15/lb. in fancy confectionery stores.
It's a very popular treat in France called orangettes

Look up banana peel recipes.
I do this for Thanksgiving every year with lemon peels as well. I add cinnamon, cloves and allspice to the water as well as the sugar and vanilla. I cut them into small strips and add them to My yams🍠 EXCELLENT
Oh good idea
Everybody so creative ! lol
That is what we call candy orange peel in the uk. We usually add it to cakes. So we tend not to coat it in sugar. That looks very tasty!🤤
That's called "casquinha caramelo" and it's very common here in the countryside of Brasil 🇧🇷😊
You can chop it finely and glaze it with fire in the end for crunchyness, it's a really delicious source of vit C

I've made this before, the result tastes EXACTLY like artificial orange flavored candy. I realize that this is what the orange flavor was trying to re-create --- candied orange peels were the original orange candy.
Tell ussss!!
That was such a personal experience and recipe. Thank you for sharing with us. ☺️ God bless you. 🥹

@@feli6421 she said it makes the bitter taste of the skin go away

I remember my grandma telling me how excited she was during the depression when she’d get an orange in her stocking. She told me she ate the whole peel and all like it was candy. It blew my mind as a little girl
Thanks, such a sweet story!!
My grandparents had a similar experience during WWII in Ireland. It was difficult to get fruit and when their dad managed to bring home an orange, it sat on the counter for a couple days so they could all look at it and smell it before they all enjoyed it together
My grandfather would also tell me what a treat it was for him to get an orange in his stocking for Christmas. He was born in 1921.

My grandmother use to do the same thing. All kinds of delicious citrus. I am 67 years old now. Its good to see these sweets carry on.
I have some blood orange peels in the fridge that I've been saving up to make a big batch of this! If you boil and change the water a couple more times, you can also candy peels without trimming them. I like them even better when they're thick and juicy rather than thin and crispy!
How many more times should you change the water?
@@hanadr Until it's enough. The bitterness bothers some people more than others, so you just have to test a small piece every couple of changes until it's ok for you.
@@hanadr usually recipes say 3 times.
Organic grapefruit is delicious this way. Candied soft, thick with all the pith left on. Then dip one end into dark chocolate. Or not.
