Day 5 – January 5 2010 – Food day 96 – A lemon for my sour day at work
Posted by admin on 5th January 2010
My day yesterday was just bad. So I found a lemon to be quite fitting. Although my sister and I LOVE to eat lemons by themselves like people eat oranges.

Ingredients:
|
1-3 organic lemons, washed
water for boiling
ice water
|
2-4 cups sugar
1 cup water
|
Directions:
| 1. | Cut the lemons into thin slices (not too thin or else they tear apart too easily) removing seeds and the ends. |
| 2. | Bring water to a boil in a saucepan and blanch the lemon slices for about a minute. Drain the lemon slices and plunge them into a bath of ice water. Drain. |
| 3. | Meanwhile, combine the sugar and 1 cup of water in a large saucepan and stir over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a simmer and add the lemon slices. Let simmer (don’t boil) for an hour (you can simmer as much as 2 hours). |
| 4. | Remove slices from hot sugar syrup and set on a cooling rack over a baking sheet to dry. Could take up to 24 hours to dry. |
| 5. | Dip in tempered dark chocolate and set on parchment paper until chocolate has cooled and firmed up. |
Finally have the Candied Lemons the way i’d like them.. well almost! But it was a great 1st try!

The other day I bought a mandoline, not sure exactly why but I wanted to see how it works and what I could do with it. Oh it’s soo cool!! I had a lot of fun slicing up lemons with it!
