Maple Candied Grapefruit Peels

Ingredients

  • 3 medium size pink grapefruits
  • 3 cups (750 ml)
  • 4 oz (115 g) 70% cacao dark chocolate
  • Water for poaching peels
  • 1 cup (250 ml) water

Directions

  • Cut each grapefruit into eight sections. Peel carefully. Set aside fruit pulp for another recipe.
  • Using a thin-bladed knife, remove pith and cut peels in half. Poach peels in a large saucepan filled with water for about thirty minutes. Drain and return to pan. Add maple syrup and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 2 hours or until peels turn translucent. Remove from heat and let cool. Dry peels on a rack.
  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler. Dip half of each peel in the chocolate, place on parchment paper, and sprinkle with maple flakes. Makes about 48 candied peels.
