Lemon peel in sugar

1. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the peel from the previously washed lemon. It is important to remove the peel in a spiral, capturing the white part about the same thickness as the peel.

2. Pour water into a saucepan (about 400 ml), send it to the fire, bring it to a boil. Put the peel in boiling water, blanch for 1 minute, then drain the water and repeat the process three times to get rid of the inherent bitterness.

3. After the manipulations with the peel, pour sugar (3/4 of the portion) into a saucepan, pour water (200 ml), send it to a small fire, bring to a boil, cook until the sugar is completely dissolved.

4. Spread the peel in the syrup, reduce the heat to the lowest, cook until it becomes soft and translucent.

5. Using a slotted spoon, we extract the lemon spirals on the grill, let them dry and cool down. The syrup can be used for other culinary purposes, it is very fragrant.

Sprinkle the delicacy with the remaining sugar and serve it on the table, help yourself!
