Инструкция
- Peel the zest of the lemon from the tail to the stem, avoiding the white pith. Cut the resulting zest into thin julienne.
- Place the julienned zest in a small saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat at the first boil. Drain. Put the pieces of zest back in the pan and repeat two more times.
- In another saucepan, heat the water and sugar. Add the pieces of zest and simmer over low heat for 40 minutes or until the zest is translucent. Drain. Set aside.
