Candied Orange Zest

The orange is actually two fruits for the price of one. The sweet juice and the bitter zest both have unique tastes and a myriad of applications. All too often, however, we use oranges and discard the zest. Here both the zest and the juice are used to their full potential to make a bitter-sweet candied orange zest. Flavored with cloves and vanilla, this candied orange zest is great as a garnish for dessert, a topping for ice cream, or a spread on your morning toast. Held in the refrigerator, it will keep indefinitely. The best part is how simple it is to make. This is a subscriber only recipe. Subscribing is easy though!
