Ingredients

  • one pound of citron one pound of white sugar
  • a pound of sugar

Directions

1

Pare and seed the citron ; let lay over night in a weak sugar water. Next morning drain through a colander; add to one pound of citron one pound of white sugar ; put the sugar on and boil until quite a thick syrup is formed, then drop the citron in and cook down thick ; when done, pour out on plates and leave near the stove until dry, then sprinkle with granulated sugar and keep in glass jars. Lemon and orange peel can be prepared in the same way only it is not necessary to lay in sugar water over night.

Preserve citron in the same way, only taking half a pound of sugar; cook until clear and put away for use.
