step 1

Slice the oranges into rounds. Make sure to remove any seeds, as they can make the candied fruit slices bitter.

step 2

Blanch the slices by dunking them into boiling water for about 60 seconds to get rid of their bitterness then add them to a waiting ice bath.

step 3

Make a simple sugar syrup by combining a cup of water with a half cup of sugar in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil

step 4

Add the orange slices to the syrup one by one so they don’t stick together. Let them simmer in the syrup for about 35 to 40 minutes

step 5

Remove the orange slices from the syrup and spread them out on a wire rack or parchment paper to dry overnight.
