Pomelo peel candy

Overview

The first time I ate pomelo peel candy made by a colleague, I was very surprised. In the hands of my colleague, the bitter pomelo peel turned into pomelo peel candy that can help digest food and reduce phlegm. It was delicious. I humbly ask my colleagues for advice. My grapefruit peel candy is delicious and beautiful. I gave it to my friends and received unanimous praise. Friends joked that it would be nice to open a micro-store to sell pomelo peel candies. The prepared grapefruit peel candy can be stored in a sealed container and will last for a year. The love for food can only grow more and more. Recently, I saw grapefruit in the streets and alleys, and my heart started to fall in love again. If I have time on the weekend, I would like to make grapefruit candies again. I miss the sweetness and satisfaction of boiling grapefruit candies.

Steps

1. 1 Take fresh grapefruit peel.

4. 4 Cut the grapefruit peel into long strips.

   

5. 5 Put the cut grapefruit peel into a basin, then add salt and rub it to remove the bitter taste of the grapefruit peel.

   

6. 6 Soak the rinsed grapefruit peel in clean water.

   

7. 7 Every 5-6 hours, pick up the grapefruit peel and squeeze out the water with your hands.

9. 9 Soak the grapefruit peel, squeeze out the water again, put it in the pot and bring to a boil.

   

10. 10 After the boiled grapefruit peel has cooled, squeeze out the water with your hands again. Sun-drying or air-drying is best.

12. 12 Add the grapefruit peel and stir-fry slowly over medium-low heat.

14. 14 The prepared grapefruit peel candy can be eaten directly, but it can also be dried in the sun, or baked at a low temperature in the oven.

    

15. 15 Sun-dried grapefruit peel candy can be stored for more than one year in a sealed container.
