Orange peel and grapefruit sauce

Overview

Time flies so fast, and it’s almost the Mid-Autumn Festival again in a blink of an eye! Various mooncakes are always made during the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and preparations start early. The orange peel sauce I made today can be soaked in water to drink, or it can be used as a filling for mooncake desserts. It can be soaked directly in water. The taste and flavor are similar to honey grapefruit tea. Adding a little to the filling will also enhance the taste.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Take out the required amount of red core grapefruit,
