Candied orange syrup
Soon the new year holidays and be sure we all buy oranges in big quantities, because this is the tradition and citrus on our holiday table is an integral part. Oranges are eaten and the shell is remained. But do not rush to throw it, if you're a Thrifty housewife. Orange peels can be candied prepare for the future. These fruits will be useful in the manufacture of baking, no matter what you bake: cake, muffins or cookies. I would also like to add that it is not necessary to wait for the holidays. During the year we eat the fruits, including oranges. I, for example, once eaten an orange, put the crust on a plate and dry in a warm place. Then collect in the pouch, when accumulated a certain number of crusts, cook these fruits and store them in the fridge, using as needed. To prepare the candied fruit can be from fresh peels. These candied fruit I used when cooking pumpkin dessert cake.
