We get loads and loads of oranges and lemons given to us. So Wednesday I started out making Lemon curd. The recipe I used was one for the microwave and it was really very easy and quick.
Then having made that I turned to oranges and found a marmalade recipe for the microwave also. This was also very easy to make and it tasted lovely too.
I then tried making Orange peel in syrup.
You cut the peel into wedges and are supposed to thread them onto string, but not having string I used cocktail sticks.
You soak them in cold water for 24 hours
Then you boil them in sugar to get a syrup
And you end up with of candied curled peel which you use as a sweet with yogurt.
The oranges that I have left will be juiced I think.

Does that beautiful jar travel well?

the orange peel in syrup looks lovely. i'm not an orange fan, but it is tempting.
I wish you would post the recipies these look delicous. Love the idea of sweetened orange peels.
So pretty in the jars, and I bet they taste wonderful.
Will we be having orange cake on Thurs, that is, if I'm still awake..
That looks fabulous, I love marmalade and lemon curd! Unfortunately I forgot to buy marmalade oranges this year, having saved all my jars!!!
