Pomelo candied fruit
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Pomelo peel is more bitter than that of any other citrus fruit. Therefore, after peeling the pomelo, cut the peel into thick matchstick-sized strips, cover with water, and let it soak for two days! This will remove all the bitterness. Change the water periodically, about three to four times over the two days. After two days, dissolve sugar in water in a small saucepan to make a syrup. Add the soaked pomelo peels into the sugar syrup and place the saucepan on the stove. Bring the candied peels to a boil, then simmer in boiling syrup for another ten minutes. Then, with the lid off, evaporate all the water over medium heat. This will take about an hour. Afterward, spread the pomelo candied peels onto a baking sheet or board and let them dry for one day. Believe me, the sweet treats will dry quickly. Before serving, you can roll them in powdered sugar or regular sugar. This delicious and unusual sweet treat goes perfectly with tea or coffee. The ready dessert can now be served.
